The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.2
This article was previously published under Q107259 SYMPTOMS
When you try to run the MS-DOS 6.2 DoubleSpace Stacker Conversion routine
you may receive the following error message:
The MS-DOS Stacker conversion program cannot continue because your
drive(s) still contain disk errors.
Before converting your drives, you must fix all disk errors. For
information about fixing disk errors, see the MS-DOS 6 User's Guide
and your Stacker documentation. After fixing the errors, run CONVERT
again.
CAUSE
This error occurs if:
- You are using Stacker 1.0.
-or-
- You are using Stacker 2.x or 3.0 and Stacker is not in your path.
WORKAROUND
If you are using Stacker 2.x or 3.0, you can work around this problem by
adding the Stacker directory to the PATH command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
MORE INFORMATION
This error occurs with Stacker 1.0 because ALLSTACK.EXE cannot find
STACKER.COM. (Stacker 1.0 does not use a STACKER.COM file).
To use the Stacker conversion routine and convert a Stacker volume file
(SVF) to a DoubleSpace compressed volume file (CVF), you must have a
version of Stacker between 2.0 and 3.0, inclusive.
