hi there,

	Can somebody please help.  I sent the message below about a week and
a  half  ago  and  the  discussion  vered  of  into  NT  land!   BTW, I have
succesfully reformatted the drive and installed things etc.  But I stil need
help on the 1st paragraph below...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
	Just  starting to find my way around the pc, one re-ocurring problem
I  have  is with doc/help files.  Wether I open either from within a prog or
just  click  on it in filemanager, they always need resizing to full screen.
docs  usually  seem  to  use  write  or  notepad,  help  is  always the nice
help-screen format.  Is there a way to make them always open full screen?

	I use windows 3.11 and pcdos7, which reminds me, what is the general
consensus on pcdos7 ?  Is it any good compared to 'normal' dos?  I got my pc
(dx4/100)  from  escom,  and  I'm  going  to reformat the drive this weekend
coming,  as  there's  to  much  crap on it, and os2warp is on there as well.
What's  the  order of setting things up/installing, that I should follow?  I
have  a  mach64  video  card,  cdrom  and  an aztech sound card plus all the
drivers for them.
 
Gulp! What started as a quick Q, ended up as a list sorry...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
TIA,Clive
