Hello,
        I have a Tandy 2500SX computer that is a number of years old. It came
loaded with Dos 5.0, and 1MB Ram on the motherboard. All worked well. I
upgraded to Dos ver 6.2. All still worked well. I then added 4MB of Ram to give
it more power. When I rebooted the computer after I installed the added memory
I got a message that I needed to run the startup program to reset. That program
is StartupSX.exe that came on the original Dos 5.0 program disks that came with
the computer. It is sopose to read the computer configuration and reset the
bios (I think). However, When I run that program, and restart the computer I
still get the message that there is a difference and I need to run the setup
program. Could setupSX.exe be incompatible with Dos 6.2?? Any ideas on how I
can get my computer to reset to the new configuration?
Thank you,
David Schulpius

David -
1) I doubt that setupSX is DOS dependent... It probably asseses the config and
writes it to CMOS. Just to be safe though, try booting DOS 5.0 from a floppy
and then run the program.
2) You'll probably have more luck in one of the Tandy forums... This is the OS9
operating system forum, and while a number of Tandy users are here, most of
them don't run DOS compatible machines.
