gamer-stu Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Good morning. I've been exploring SpartaDOS X within u1mb and am really enjoying it. I've encountered my first problem though: I can't format disks. I typed in the FORMAT command, which brings up the super intuitive format menu. Whether I select SpartaDOS or Atari format, single or enhanced density, the computer crashes when it tries to verify the format. I have tried this on two different 1050s, with both the same and different disks and have experienced the same result. Both of these 1050s format with DOS 2.5 just fine. Any thoughts? Screen shot below of the SpartaDOS screen disposition once things go south. Again, it appears to format and then crashes when it tries to verify the format.
