The bootstrap program is just a bit of BASIC that loads TSDOS, it does nothing else and does not stay resident/running so there is nothing to uninstall.
It might be that part of TS-DOS is being installed in high memory and this is conflicting with Multiplan? Go to: http://club100.org/library/libdoc.html , look on the right center of page and download TSDOS.PDF ‘The Best On’. There are a lot of TSDOS tips and tricks in there including how to uninstall it.

What is the method to “uninstall” the bootstrap? Couldn’t find that anywhere, so just did a cold reset Mike Sent from my iPhone On Feb 14, 2023, at 7:22 AM, [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> wrote: I’m just guessing here but suspect that TS-DOS is hooking into some of the same resources that Multiplan tries to hook into. You might try the ‘DOS OFF’ button before trying to run Multiplan.

As was explained to me in great detail (thanks you!) that this ROM does have some atypical characteristics, like forcing a cold reset upon install or removal. I was excited to just purchase and receive one of the backpack SD card units that simulates a TPDD. IT works great but…. Here is where I need help from the experts, something about its bootstrap installation of TS-DOS, which By the way I cannot seem to find any instruction, manual or otherwise on how to uninstall this bootstrap! But regardless, it does something in RAM that now conflicts with my multiplan ROM ☹ Multiplan will not run if the TS-DOS is installed per the instructions for the backpack, if I cold reset, then multiplan will run fine, but as soon as I install the SD card bootstrap, when I enter multiplan it just returns me to the menu Thanks in advance for any assistance, I am hoping I can identify the conflict and load the TS-DOS in a different location ?!? Model 102 BTW mike
