ChemStation error message

[PHOBIUS]

Hi,

Has anybody ever seen this ChemStation error message ?

"Method not compatible with instrument ! Current method is not valid ! Please load valid method ! "

Thanks.

In technical lingo, it just means something is screwed up !
Examples:
Loading a corrupt method.
Loading a method created with Rev B software under Rev A.
Loading a method with wrong module parameters.

One more possible explaination. Corruption in ChemStation or the Operating System software can cause read/load problems.

Thank you for your reply.

I can foreclose the first and the second choice for one reason: I am unable to load the default method, which cannot be changed.

What does it mean to load a method with wrong module parameters ?

Thanks.

I change the regional settings in windows.
