Problem solved - Thanks

Hi Tone007.

I did attempt to try and run it as a slave with another workbench hard drive installed but I didnt have any luck. Can I ask how I would go about starting it up with no sequence?  I dont really understand what it means.

Thanks

Ill give that a go within the next hour, im pretty sure I tried to boot 3.1 from the floppy but the hard disk kicked in before the floppy had a chance. Ill give it another go though.

Will update shortly.

Briliant! I held down both mouse buttons and chose boot with no startup sequence but all I got a dos promt page. I then booted the system with a 3.1 disk and I can access the files that way. Theres all sorts of stuff on it so im going to have a good look now. Thanks for the advice, it was the simplist thing to do yet I didnt even think of it! Priceless after the many hours spent messing about lol

Ill update again shortly

The hard drive is full of programs thats ive never heard of, mostly to do with graphics. Ill have to compile a list and add some images shortly.
