Error when copying the program to the scribbler

MarkGoedhart

Hello,

My son wants to make a program with the scribbler GUI. When he wants to copy the program to the scribbler the following messagebox appears:

Title: Stampw.exe - No Disk
Subject: There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive Device\Harddisk1\DR2.

|Cancel| |Try Again| |Continue|



When he press a couple of times on Continue the file is copied to the Scribbler

I figured out that Device\Harddisk1\DR2 is my external USB harddisk. When I put this one in the USB port and press the copy button in the GUI there is no error and the read led on the
The read led goes on USB harddisk will flash so there is a read process.

I uninstalled the USB harddisk driver but nothing helps.

Why is the GUI and STAMPW.EXE searching on the USB harddisk? How can I fixed it?

The latest version of the BASIC Stamp Editor (ver. 2.4.2) (.exe installation file) fixes this problem. To use it with the Scribbler, do the install, then copy the newly-installed stampw.exe file to your C:\Program Files\Parallax Inc\Scribbler v1.1\Editor folder, overwriting the previous version.

Based on this thread, that should have fixed the problem. In the Scribbler GUI, click the "View Program" button (the one on top with the yellow lined paper). When the BASIC Stamp Editor comes up, click Help->About. What version number is displayed?

Happy Newyear!

I have attached 2 printscreens. It is 2.4.2. I use the Dutch Windows XP version. Maybe this is the problem?
