Lines: 22 Problems with conficting programs,accessories on your hard disk Theo: Last weekend I got the same problem with a accessory. To remove this, or rename it, pressduring bootup (if you are using atari hdboot prog). Now the computer will boot from floppy a, here you have a floppy which contains `ahdi.prg` (NOT in the autofolder if possible), start it up (by hand) wait until the desktop returns, then create a disk C icon, open it and do whatever you want -> removing, renaming conflicting progs. If a program in the autofolder doesn`t have `.prg` as extension it won`t be executed. I hope this answers your problem, and to all other people: forgive me posting all around the world instead of mailing Theo the answer but maybe other people could use this tip.
