Hi Ray,
I should have added, if TS-DOS starts at 50000, then type in:
CLEAR 200,50000
You can change the 200 to however much string space you need for your
program.

Hi Ray,
What is your HIMEM set to? It should be set to just below where
TS-DOS loads. Otherwise, loading a program could overwrite TS-DOS and
crash it.

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!
