- There's a proggy called "kick13" which reboots your machine using kickstart
- 1.3. I used it when I had 2.05, and I use it now that I have 3.0. It lets

- Eye of the Beholder works under 3.0 anyway, I think. The most I usually
- have to do to run old games is boot in ECS mode. Captive is about the only
- thing which really requires me to use kick13.
