Ian,
what helped for me when getting similar messages in the past ("SMSQ/E file
cannot be not found or read" or the like) is to make sure the following
configuration section in SMSQmulator.ini points to the correct location of
the right SMSQE file, e.g.
# File containing the SMSQE code
ROM_IMAGE_FIlE = C:\!MyToolBox\Q\Machines_under\J\SMSQmulator\v120-7\SMSQE

or just holds the filename of the OS SMSQ/E file without the path of it
# File containing the SMSQE code
ROM_IMAGE_FIlE = SMSQE
This is how SMSQmulator.ini is configured on the "The Final DVD". I have
chosen this way as the DVDs or HHDs drive letter can be different at each
user.

When it points to an older installation of SMSQmulator and hence to an older
version of SMSQ/E messages like yours are what one might get.

Also make sure that you don't have alien or orphaned SMSQmulator.ini files
on you system (e.g. an old/misconfigured one in the users root directory.).

Just my two pennies...

Cheers, Urs
