Thanks for any help. There's no *complete* list, since any piece of software you're using can display whatever error codes it wants--but *usually* the error codes are things that are being passed along from GS/OS or the Toolbox, and you can find error codes in the GS/OS Reference Manual Vol 1 (APDA) and the Apple IIgs Toolbox Reference, Vols 1 and 2 (Addison-Wesley). There's probably not a lot you can do about 0911. I occasionally get those on my GS at home. Some machines never get them; some get them occasionally. (If you get them *frequently* & are still under warranty consider getting your dealer to replace your motherboard.) 0911 means that the system was unable to get synchronized with the "keyboard microcontroller" (the chip inside the GS that talks to the keyboard and mouse). The problem may be related to heat and/or power-supply load. >On a different note, can anyone tell me how to install more fonts than >the ones that come with AppleWorksGS?

Normally, you want to use the Installer or make an exact copy of an existing bootable disk. If you're looking for a *minimum* set of files you need to boot, see GS/OS Technical Note #1 (available lots of ways, including FTP from apple.com). --Dave Lyons, Apple Computer, Inc. | DAL Systems AppleLink--Apple Edition: DAVE.LYONS | P.O.
