After seeing messages about the virtues of GEOS I found someone to lend
me a copy (I do buy software, but only when I consider it worthwhile).
Problem number one: it obviously has a fast disk loader which clashes
with my installed Flash 1541. It puts up the message
	BOOTING GEOS
then goes into hyperspace.
No problem, you say; simply switch off Flash (hardware switch on 64 and
on 1541). When I do that, firstly it just says
	BO
then it eventually loads what looks like GEOS, except that I have no
cursor.
Thus, has anyone fixed GEOS to run with Flash? Alternatively, has anyone
else had similar problems without it? BTW, I have checked my disk drive,
since our local club had bought the disk alignment program.
