Okay, I may have caused this error myself. When I was trying to run SeaTools DOS
I was unable to "accept" the terms, etc. using my mouse or keyboard (USB). My kid
(yea, I didn't know this) said USB is disabled in DOS. So I plugged in an old keyboard
and mouse (PS2). Have since unplugged and gone back to USB. Should I still try
using them?
System info:
Intel Pentium
3.20GHz
896 MB Ram
