    HsFB - if you have the Control Panel applet "TweakUI" its lurking in the 'PowerToys' directory of Win95 and I think Win98 (not SE) install discs or can be found on the MS site - it offers (under the 'boot' tab) an option to expose the start menu that normally only occurs when the beast thinks it needs to fire up in Safe Mode. - I always have this on for a few seconds so I can choose to boot into DOS if that is appropriate.

      pressing F8 after the beep heard when you turn the computer on will bring up that menu.

      I need to know which file tells Windows to start in MS-DOS mode.

      And my mouse behaves extremely odd.

        In lieu of posting the game on a site somewhere, how about an update here?

        How goes the war? And not necessarily in the usual "log" format. How about some beautifully embellished prose?

          Received it and finished my turns.

          Corn, I don't know how to do a text file or how to post it here. So, in addition to sending the file to Christine, I'm sending it back to for you to do or post.

          Results of my turn:

          1) Mingapulco was founded.
          2) None attached settler and archer from hut.
          3) Currency, Warrior Code, and Alphabet from huts.
          4) Discovered/Researched Cerimonial Burial.
          5) Researching Code of Laws
          6) 3 settlers currently being built.

          Good luck Christine.

            Any sign of other life on this planet? What does the geological formation look like? Have we got cable TV yet?

              3000BC-2050BC (20 turns) Maud'Dib (Player 2) *
              2000BC-1050BC (20 turns) Scouse Gits (Player 3)
              1000BC-525BC (20 turns) DaveV (Player 4)
              500BC-25BC (20 turns) Smash (Player 5)

              etc.....

              The next players that do this should have an assigned time to meet each night to exchange .sav's and talk about the game!!! This would make it much more organized.

              Anywho....

                    Corn, I got e-mail alert when I sent the file to Christine. I'll forward you the e-mail alert that was sent to me; therefore, I'm sending the file to Scouse Gits, hopefully there won't be a problem with his e-mail address.

                      Another problem....

                      I need an e-mail address for Scouse Gits--there is none listed in his profile.

                      Corn, you have the same file that was being sent to Christine.

                      You figure out who should get it next.

                        Ok from now on when you finish your turn, send the .sav back to me at dacornmaster@hotmail.com . This way I can keep track of everything. I sent the file to Christine as well. I'll rename it apolyton1.sav,...apolyton2.sav....etc as I recieve them and then SG will have an easier time keeping track of them Aren't I so nice

                        Anywho I updated the player list to add Andemagne and Sibir. Kapeash!!!

                        Anywho...good luck all!!

                          Good Job.

                          The terrain was lousy--too much swamps and forests.

                              Christantine The Great where are you!!!!! (/yelling) Your e-mail doesn't work!!! I'll put you at the bottom of the list and I hope you can give us a working e-mail before your turn. I updated the list above again. Scouse Gits it's your turn now. Make us proud!!!
