I've got a new small problem with my IIGS.
I have a Bluedisk card which has worked very well for years, and still
does. I changed a few things around last month, and now have a new
problem. Previously, when I put a MSDOS disk in the drive, and pushed
"Control" to poll the drive, the disk would appear on the desktop and I
could "drag and drop" to copy from the icon. (The MSDOS FST is read
only)
Now, the icon doesn't appear on the desktop. The Watson utilities (and
others as well, such as Utilityworks, find the disk just fine; it just
doesn't appear on the desktop.
I've corresponded with Joachim Lange, and he believes some Finder file
is corrupted:
"What's going wrong is that the Finder is somewhat confused about your
icons. It seems that the desktop file is corrupted which results in
displaying wrong or no icons."
He suggests that the comp.sys.apple2 group might help me.
Any ideas?
