I think I have found a bug in the STE. When booting from a floppy with a colour
display, the machine allways comes up in low res. The window positions etc are
correct however if the res is then changed to medium. This problem happens when
using a desktop.inf saved on the STE and with the file saved on a TOS1.2 ST.

Anybody know a way around this?

On the compatability front the only program I have found that will not run on
the STE is palace software's Barbarian.

Dave Halliday.
