Thanks in advance. > The-Tree @cup.Portal (Paul Baum) Just run the SetupSL program on the MS dos disk. This allows you to select the boot device (rom or disk,) where to find autoexec and config files, etc. For more extensive option controls, try setupsl /a for MANY screen of stored parameters, and setupsl /f restores all factory params, just as does f10 while in setup.
