Hi Allan, I certainly didn't mean to blame Atari or the ROMs, just wanted
to make some observations on my initial experience with TOS 1.4.  I did
diable ALL *.ACC's before booting the first time, the inital boot up was
fine, but then the system bombed.  After a few more attempts I repeatedly
has strange errors (TOS #35) and then discovered my FAT tables all messed
up.  I checked the installation and it was perfect, not an excess drop of
solder or bent chip anywhere.  After a refomat of the drive and re-installati
of all my programs from their original disks I'm happy to report that the
system is working fine!  <grin>  The weird part is this - why didn't my
programs work when I attempted to restore from my HD backup?  Why did I
have to restore from original floppies?  The last mystery in my TOS 1.4
experience <grin>.  I'm VERy HAPPY with the upgrade and recommend that
everyone get a copy - its well worth it.  But it always takes a disaster
to prevent future problems and answer the problems faced by new TOS 1.4
owners, I was and am more than happy to have this learning experience
happen to me rather than someone who really didn't know what to do!
