A.3 DOS/4G Error Messages
DOS/4G errors are more common than kernel errors when using DOS/4G or
DOS/4GW with the TMS470R1x code generation tools. They are usually re-
lated to an unknown path name, corrupt files, or memory problems. Memory
problems can include inadequate memory, poor configuration, or corrupted
memory.

ably because of a memory shortage.
