My complaints were tested by my local tech after installing TOS 1.4 from the desktop only,so the problem wasn't found. Unfortunately other programs using their own file selectors don't benefit from TOS 1.4s fmc hack. A friendly dealers solution was to swap in a drive from a machine going back to Atari for other problems (I'll never tell who). Perhaps Bob Brodie,who has showed up here a few times from an account on portal could clarify what's going onm. John Henders
