I have just purchased a Hard Drive (mentioned above) and 2Mb of ram (3 in total). I use VLT as a terminal program. During the first few days I hadn't put in on HD. But when I ran it with the Drive on, I kept getting a Task Held. Even when the games switch (should be the auto-booting switch) was down and I booted off the floppy, it still happened. Now that it is installed, it works fine (well almost, xprzmodem causes a guru too). 1. Is there any reason for this, or just my bad luck? 2. Are there many programs that do this off this Drive - one other example is NoClick 3.6. Please reply by e-mail.
