 MakeIDX Help 
 06 Apr 13 04:22:00 
 
-> I am running PCB on WinXP SP3. My file system is a Sata 2TB HD
-> partitioned into 4 500GB drives using NTFS.

-> When i try and make an IDX file using "makeidx files.lst files.idx",
-> i get a windows error "NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal
-> instruction."

-> Should i be using a 16bit FAT filesystem or is NTFS workable?

A quick test of makeidx worked for me.  Don't know why yours failed.

I found a link to download QEMM 8.03 and Desqview 2.80.  I set it up on
a spare box and tested it with my reverse telnet proxy.  Works good.  It
might be easier for you to bring back your old DV setup the way it was.
