Corrupt Systems.ini file - I think.

2»

Comments

  • Hi Gav

    I've mucked around with it tonight. I reinstalled the monitor and disk adaptors and this worked alright. However as soon as a put the tick back in the Process System.Ini File under system configuration utility the same problem returns, ie, grey screen, no colours, big fonts, mouse doesn't work, screen goes black on the settings tab of display properties.

    I guess it's not a really a problem as long as I leave that tick out. Who knows.

    Anyway this is the system.ini file
