Do you have your emergency boot floppy?  If so, boot with it and copy the startup-sequence off of the CD.  Otherwise, if you've installed any boing bag updates there will be backups in S:.

Type 'loadwb' followed by 'endcli' to get into workbench and then write a new startup-sequence.

Thanks for the help ;)   I must keep a backup

My mistake was for some stupid reason trying the edit startup-sequence using using WORDPAD in windows XP and it must have changed the format .. could that be it ?

PC ends lines with two bytes (CR+LF)instead of normal single LF (Amiga, UNIX..), that may caused your trouble.

It will have caused his problems =) you cant edit Amiga txt files on Windows without it becoming "corrupt" on AmigaOS.
