Hi James, I stumbled over that bug a few days ago. To fix it: Type: edit C:\FDCONFIG.SYS In the editor find the line: SHELLHIGH=C:\FDOS\bin\command.com C:\FDOS\bin /E:1024 /P=C:\autoexec.bat and change it to: 1234?SHELLHIGH=C:\FDOS\bin\command.com C:\FDOS\bin /E:1024 /P=C:\autoexec.bat (In one line) The problem was this: There wasn't any line that included the fourth option as a choice ("1234?") only lines with choices "123?". So FreeDOS automatically won't make it possible to choose the fourth option. So (as shown above) we take a line that is mandatory for all options and include it in all choices (1234?). > How can I activate the 4th boot menu option to run freedos with no > drivers? Or failing that; how to get rid of emm after booting up with > it active? Of course the best solution for you would be to make the fourth option the default. To do that: edit C:\FDCONFIG.SYS Find the line: MENUDEFAULT=2,5 Change it to: MENUDEFAULT=4,5 regards Uli ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
