changing screenmode
« on: June 26, 2007, 02:21:15 PM »
Hi I made a really stupid mistake when I was using my a1200 without thinking what I was doing I changed the screenmode on wb3.1 and I chose low res without auto scrolling and I saved it. What a dumbo I am now i cannot change it back to my old screenmode and I only see a section of the screen. Any ideas on how i can sort this out.

Boot without startup-sequence (both mouse buttons pressed down while booting) and cd prefs/env-archive/sys/ and delete screenmode.prefs file.

Have you tried booting with no startup sequence and changing the prefs from there?
