Title: OS 3.1 prob
Post by: Miloo on March 28, 2009, 12:26:33 AM

I have done something to my workbench 3.1 disk as when I boot of it it goes to the dos prompt and not into workbench, how do I get it to boot into workbench again?

endcli (press enter/return)

How do I rectify this on my 3.1 install disk? :idea:
