Since so many people were kind enough to answer my plea for help I
thought I would post an update. I did some experiments:
My system is a 1040ST (really new), SM124 monitor, and a SH204 hard drive.
Experiment 1: I disconnected the hard drive and installed MWC for
a single double-sided system. This worked just fine. No problems.
Experiment 2: Reconnect the hard disk, but continue to use only the ram disk
and floppy. No problems.
Experiment 3: I used the hard disk in the following trials (the table
indicates the location of the specified entity):
Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Trial 4
C compiler and floppy hard disk floppy floppy
libraries
Temporary files hard disk ram disk ram disk hard disk
Source ram disk ram disk hard disk hard disk
---------------------------------------------
Results of trial: worked bombed worked worked
I'm going to experiment further. I'd be interested in hearing the
opinion of Atari. What part of my system is failing?
"Thank you for your support."
