Castaway 009 .. if crash, heres the fix

[skeezix]

Looks like for some people Castawya/GP 009 has a crash issue on launch (after the splash screen).

If it happens to you, start up PC-link and delete the STCACHE1.TXT file from the ATARIST directory, and all will be well. Looks like something is wrong with it somewhere along the line :/

I'll fix for 9.1

cheers - almost had a heart attack when it didn't work!

Unfortunately, it seems to do this whenever there's ANY variant of the STcache1.txt file there, regardless of what it contains. I did a true reset and the thing went back to crashing. So somehow the reading routine for them might be dead? Not sure...

Mine was working fine when i first got 009, but after a few hours when the girlfriend went to bed i booted up again and it started crashing, deleting this file fixed it but just letting you know that it happened after a while
