I have a conflict with IRQ 1,4 and 5.[INT 9,0C and 0D]. Is this a triple fault or treated as a double fault and how would I proceed to fix this error.I have
very limited resources from old 3 1/4 diskettes
sitting around from a few years ago with some 8080/88 tech notes,debug and pretty much a
simple boot disk with format and fdisk and an editor.I do not have a disasm editor or any fancy tools as I cannot access my usb. If I could just access my usb I could finish the error with INT 0D to which I have a pretty good idea what this error is.
The problem is I dont have lmod.com and bdrv.exe to simulate the NMI and as such cannot trace it.
So my high level lien in autoexec.bat wont work to trace.
[if %%root==%%echo < nul]Actually I see where the error occured as the error started when I edited this to remove the
dot from my path in config.sys[path=c:\dos;..;.;]
now I see another errorhere's the correction :
if not %root==%%echo. > nul
dont forget the dot at the echo as it is right after lockdrv.bat
Since Nobody is answering-due to lack of knowledge... I just examined lmod.com with a hex editor and this code is under my system startup
C:>debug
-a 0000:0000all those si additions are in my system from int 13 ax=0301,write from memory-what I need then is to get a simple,small but powerfl hex editor and zero my drive but however require a way to move the file on a low level format from my usb primary to my primary HDD.
Can anybody tell me this-since I am debugging my own high level codes w/o teh capacity to do so - iw ould think the double percent is not reaquried on the root unless the command interpretor was beign loaded twice.This sometiems ocurs if you load command.com high via shell=.
It would be good to know a low level procedure to do this,but I believe I may be beat as the usb requries a driver to function - what if I disable my hard drive and runt he computer as an 8080 -- then use int 13 a few times to clear the error via dummy ramdrive.I have one on diskette but becasue of an I/O error on one disk i cannot copy it.
I suspect that no-one is answering because of the confused nature of the question and lack of hardware information.

ANyways I found a solution to test this pattern for lockdrv.bat.--butmessage edited by Vilhjalmur

maybe this site is not for me-I'll go to a site where my work is appecatiated but anyways JaySon watch out for that hanging tree message edited by Vilhjalmur
Your haughty attitude won't get you very far on any site. For IRQ problems first check in cmos/bios setup and see what can be assigned there. And if they involve a PCI card, moving the card to another slot will give it a different IRQ.
Norton Utilities for dos has a good stand alone text editor as well as a wipedisk utility that fit on floppies. I believe though they only work on FAT16 partitions. But you can get zero fill utilities just about anywhere that run from floppies.
Debug.com, included with every version of MS-DOS, is all you need to edit a floppy disk. But I still find the OP's question totally incomprehensible. I think he is correct that this is not the forum for him.
