I have a related question.  I have both a 520 and 1040 ST.  The 520 has
a 1 meg upgrade and a Supra 20 meg hard disk attached.  Sometimes, when
I push the reset button, it boots several times.  The screen goes blank,
and the booting starts again.  Sometimes this also happens with my
1040 with no hard disk attached.  I've never experienced it when I
turn on the machine for the first time.  Any suggestions?
