[M100] Model T Basic Help Needed!

[Ray Lopez]

Hi All,

I've been having to do a lot of writing lately, so I decided to dust off 
one of my lovely Tandy 102s.

I had used it heavily about 3 years ago, and never had a problem with 
saving and retrieving files from my NADSBox, using TS-DOS.

I installed TS-DOS using the DSKMGR.100 BASIC file.  The install went 
smoothly, and all seemed OK.  I was able to save and retrieve *.DO files 
easily to and from the 102 and my NADSBox.

Then I tried to load a *.BA program from the NADSBox to my 102, and this 
is where everything went wrong.  The *.BA program loaded onto my 102, 
but it wrote itself into RAM that was being used by another *.BA program 
I had there, or by the TS-DOS *.CO file itself!

I tried doing some CLEAR commands in the BASIC interpreter prior to 
loading *.BA files, to no avail.  The *.BA files would get loaded, then 
would eventually cause the 102 to do a hard reset, taking me back to 
January 1, 1900.  :-)

I know this is really basic stuff, but I have spent hours combing 
through the references on club100.org and bitchin100.com and have not 
had any luck.  It's weird because I never had this problem before, but I 
am clearly forgetting something very basic.

If anyone has any advice on what I am doing wrong in this scenario, I 
would be much obliged.  thanks!
