- I had the same problem last night; I loaded Help with F6, (which didn't
- load until I toggled the Fkeys to ON), then clicked the mouse on
- an item in the second (right-hand) column. It completely hung and
- I had to soft boot.
-
- Any suggestions? Hopefully this can be fixed as the new 3.11c is a
- generally nice port.

- PS: I use a Toshiba 3100SX laptop with Toshiba DOS 5.
-
- PSS: This is a mild bug compared to some of the weirdness I experienced
- with the preceeding version.
