Sounds like your DRIVERS.TXT file is set for read-only access. I seem to
recall that the new patch does this. Go to the carset directory (CARS95?)
and type:

    ATTRIB -r *.*

That should set everything to r/w access again.

Howdy,

ICR2, i go into edit player, change the name to my info,
exit and get the error "Can't write to player file" or
something like that. I installed to harddrive so I am not
useing CDROM.
Any ideas?

Sounds like the read only attribute is set. Use ATTRIB *.* -R to turn it
off.

Change the file attribute of all the ICR2 files so they are not read-only.  
that solved the problem for me.

1. How do I convert 'normal' ICR2 into Rendition ICR2?

2. Unable To Write To Drivers Info. -- ICR2

3. writing well vs writing for a living -- complements or opposites?

4. ICR2:Krosnoff's replacement plays ICR2!

5. 'Canned' spins

6. Writing different values to '93-'95 GM 2.2 ECM?

7. Thought you'd like to see what I've been writing about. . .

8. DaimlerChrysler won't (can't?) write!
