The following describes the sequence I went through to try and get
PC Speed to boot DOS from my SH204 drive (which, incidentally, did not
work).

1. PC Speed software installed on drive C: (TOS HDX boot)

2. PC_INST.PRG used to assign DOS C: = TOS D:
                              DOS D: = TOS C:

3. run PC Speed and boot DOS 3.2 from A:

4. format C:/s (this put IO.SYS,MSDOS.SYS and COMMAND.COM on my
   TOS D: partition which PC Speed was told was my DOS C: partition
   (from step 2)

5. exit back to GEM and re-run PC_INST.PRG to set boot from HD.

6. re-run PC Speed and  ZIP, the system just hangs.

What did I do wrong?

I am still getting stack overflow messages if I switch menus in dBASE III
Plus too fast (takes more effort than before I resoldered my board socket
but it still happens). Any PC Speed specialists on the NET to address my
problems?
