My CD
writer will not store 600MB of 15MBTiff files if all are saved at once.
The PC crashes. I've re-installed the operating system and applications
twice and tried another cd-burner. There are no reported memory faults
when I ran a memory test for 6 hours with 7 passes.
I can
save a few at a time or use jpeg files all at once.
Large
executables do the same thing and I burned a cd with poser installation
data. The pc did not crash but poser will not install from this
disk.
It is
really strange.
I
think it is because the quatity of data in the cd write buffer exceeds the
capacity of my pc available memory (and I've done it with no software loaded
with the same results) and os data gets overwritten such as the stack or the
heap where jumps and other addresses are stored.
I've
even had the screen memory overwritten like those old fashioned crashes when the
screen displays all sorts of patterns and the pc freezes.
I
think there is no cure but a silicon graphics workstation or a dec-alpha.
I have three drams of 256MB. three 60 gb hard disks.
I've
even tried taking out most of the addon hardware .....
Anyone
else had similar experiences. Anyone with ideas as to how to
fix.
