Received my copy of msc5.1 last night. Successful at the first
step (how hard can opening packages be?). Try running setup.
Immediately stuck. Setup came back with one screenful of message
regarding reading setup.doc and hitting C or <return> to continue.
Then no response from keyboard. Can't even do a ctrl-alt-del. Any
suggestions?
Configuration: ATT6300 with version 1.0 ROM running ATT DOS 3.2.

From what I've experienced and what I've heard, it's amazing that DOS 3.2 works at all. I've heard that msc5.0 had problems with a Western Digital hard disk controller that causes similar symptoms. It was WD's fault, and they allegedly provided a fix. I don't know if msc5.1 has the same problem or not, but I'm pretty sure that someone I know has used msc5.1 on a 6300 with no problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ^ Michael J.
