Hi Raphael,

have a look in the GUIDE directory how big your STARTUP.Mar file is. If this
gets scrambled for whatever reason then GUIDE does not know from where to
start and asks the Disks.
The size of my STARTUP.MAR file is 3625 bytes.

Hope that helps.

Regards,

Josch Hambsch

Subject: [guide-user] "Guide needs the guide CD-ROM to run"


I'm a new user of guide.
Last night was the first night I was trying to use guide on the field with
my laptop...I was proud to show my friends this wonderfull tool !
But I had a problem on my laptop : I switched on the laptop, then run
guide. OK
But during the installing of the scope, the laptop went to sleep.
Not a big deal : No problem, I tried to switch it on again but then the
screen was black (this has nothing to see with guide, it appens sometimes
when my laptop goes to sleep).
So I add to switch off completely the computer.
After star up, guide didn't wan't to reopen : it was saying
"Guide needs the guide CD-rom to run
Check your cd drive and try again"
I hadn't bring my guide CDs so I just pressed OK
Then it says
"Near memory: 7 allocations 55923 bytes" and guide didn't wan't to open that
night.
Bad publicity for my friends...

So I continued my observation without guide.
This morning I tried to rerun guide with my guide cd (1 or 2) in the laptop,
but there is nothing new. It still doesn't want to open.
HELP !!!!!
What could I do ??? I don't wan't to loose the personanlisation I made on
guide if I have to reinstalled it...
Thanks for your help
Raphaël
