Now what?

ok fixed.

on advice from tech support.

I cleared the glist and regenerated the translator.

It worked.

I dont like regenerating the translator without first getting a backup of mod 2b.

It can lead to the situation where you cant read past a certain point.

But it worked - thanks !

002b is usually bad and unreadable while it has 0 LBA symptoms. Also, 002b is not the cause of partial accessibility after translator regen
