But RISC OS was already frozen, so trying Alt-Break might get you out 
of it and if not it hasn't made the situation any worse!

Alt-Break is a PITA and here very rarely if ever works, most times it just
freezes RISC OS and can't be got out of without rebooting RISC OS.

Too late for this time, but if this ever happens again remember that 
you can press Alt-Break to just kill the currently hung task.

Failure to load

2016-08-23 Thread Gerald Dodson 
When trying to shut down, NS seemed to just loop. I was unable to find any
way of gaining access to the Iyo 100 so switched of power. On re starting
and trying to run NS it seems to loop. Cntr break restarts the machine and
everything else appears to run. I had been accessing a large number of
sites both with that last session and with previous sessions over the last
few days.

How should I proceed?
