Abs do not verify



"ABS FRAME MISMATCHES - EXPECTED FFFF FOUND FFFF."

This message occurs when ABS in memory does not match the DATA ABS, due to ABS corruption. This corruption could be in the DATA ABS, or in memory.

To correct this problem, clear the DATA ABS and SEL-RESTORE the DATA ABS from the Pick DATA diskettes or from a pseudo floppy. Reload the VIRTUAL ABS (ABS Diskettes #1 & #2 or Pseudo Floppy) from the 'A' option.

WARNING: This process will require reloading any ABS Patches and custom ABS.

PROCEDURE:

1. From the DM account at TCL type: clear-file data abs 

2. SET-FLOPPY (AH or SET-DEVICE device#  
(depending on the drive you will be loading your Pick Data files from).

3. If Pick was loaded from diskette then, insert the original Pick data #1 diskette.

4. Type SEL-RESTORE ABS (I , choose F)ull, Account name on tape = DM Filename = ABS

5. Insert the DATA #2 disk when prompted.

6. From TCL in the DM account type VERIFY-SYSTEM

7. If the system still does not verify, Shutdown and reboot the system (with the System #1 disk or Monitor patch if you have a NATIVE or PRO system), at the option menu choose A)BS and reload ABS using ABS #1 & #2 diskettes or the ABS file listed in the display.

8. The system should verify now.

9. Reload any ABS patches and custom ABS that were previously loaded.
