- Hi!
-
- Thanks for the replies. Last night after posting that message I did a Selective
- Installl and it did work!. Great!, now I can use 800X600 and 1024X768 modes in
- 256 colors. Too bad I can't run seamless WINOS2 yet.
-
- I still have that problem with Crosslinking in EAs. Funny; all the files that
- are cross linked are those program files which existed in my WIN31 desktop (I
- used my WIN31 desktop to build WINOS2 desktop and chose the auto update WIN31
- for any changes in WINOS2 desktop option). Maybe it's supposed to be that way.
- Any comments?

- Thanks!
