How many archives do you have on the PCMCIA card?. I think you can only have 10 archives. Also the archive name can only be no more than 8 letters.

Are you able to do a XBK in LD 143 OK?. If you have a backup copy and send it to me, I can see if it loads up OK on my test system.

All the best

If it's working, then leave it alone!.

Your PCMCIA card shouldn't be more than 128 Megs and it's best to never format it unless you use the card programmer tool or via an old Windows 95/98 computer.

I'm lucky in that I have an old Canon camera that used the Compact Flash card and I format most of my cards when they cause problems with it.
