Hi there !

My System:
A500(OCS), 0.5 Chip, 2.5MB Fast, MultiEvolution3.0 SCSI Controller,
Quantum Fireball 1080, WB2.1
I have heard that HD >1GB are making problems with OS2.0.
But ... I formatted it and have only one partition (maybe a mistake !).
Until a certain level I had no problems, but when the HD was full about
42% a problem occured:
I have big problems with the Workbench. It is possible to open one or
two drwaers, but soon as I trie to open another drawer or start a program,
the computer crashes, no GURU, nothing, simple all the programs
stop running, after about 5 sec even the mousearrow won't move anymore,
Just as if a program was taking all the CPU-load.
I have already looked for viruses, found none with my antivirusprogs.
I have started the Amiga with no programs running, disabled the
WBStartup-drawer, typed LOADWB, but I got the same result.
I have got no problems with CLI, anything else (GUIs,CLI,Programs started
from CLI etc.) works fine.
Is there a connection between the HD and this ?
Do you have any other ideas ?
Please e-mail, thanks

Andre
