additional info on error

Post by petee1979 »

no i dont have any additonal info, when i use the link on the menu nothing happens i have to execute it with the terminal command, then it just says it is going to terminate and the error appears, i assume it is related to the COM error listed on the FAQ page because it is on a pendrive not a hard drive.
