- - If you have a //e, I don't know what's going wrong.
-
- - If you have a //gs, wiggle your keyboard cable when it happens. Sometimes

- - If you are running P8 from GS/OS, make sure you don't have Easy Access
- installed (unless you need it). Ditto for CloseView.

- General comment: if you want help diagnosing a problem, give as many details
- as you can think of.
