Hope this isn't too trivial but the issue was raised recently(forgot
which posting-sorry) about a ROM03 GS not running most of the poster's
games.Since ROM03 has some of System5,does this force the computer to
run GS/OS 3.0 (System 5.0.2)? In particular will all software which
"don't follow the rules" have to be updated ? If so then is it possible
to block those parts of System 5 in ROM from loading in order to trick
the computer that it is a ROM 01 GS ?!

System software earlier than 5.0 is not *guaranteed* to work properly on ROM 03 machines, but it generally does. The TOOL.SETUP files on older system disks will not override any tools that are in ROM 03 (so the answer is "no"). -- --Dave Lyons, Apple Computer, Inc. | DAL Systems AppleLink--Apple Edition: DAVE.LYONS | P.O.
