Warning! The TOS version that you are using on disk is an early BETA version
of TOS 1.4 and is probably LOADED with lots of nice bugs. Please destroy 
that disk ASAP and then goto to your local dealer and purchase the real
upgrade on ROM. 

This will probably clear up any problems you are experiencing..
