    I have an AT compatible computer and need to run a program that auto-
boots from floppy.  The program runs too quickly to be useful.  I have some
TSR's that slow the computer to XT speeds, but they won't work if I reboot
with CTRL-ALT-DEL.  Is there a way to boot from floppy while keeping TSR's
in memory and active?  There must be some address in the BIOS that can be
jumped to to accomplish this.
    My AT compat is a CompuAdd Standard 286/10 with Phoenix BIOS.  And the
program I want to run is IKARI WARRIORS(TM).
