Hi
Sorry if this has already been mentioned but, I suggest you get a text editor like Cygnus ED [ CED ] and view the contents of your startup and user startup in S ... You will get a good feel of what is going on on your machine. You can also use CED to edit files generally and you will get a lot more information than the .info file. Make a back up of your S drawer and try not to mess with anything. DOpus is also very useful for viewing, copying etc drawers, tools etc.
