Roydea6 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hi, Ever since I got the Ultimate1mb upgrade with 4 os's built in I have been wondering about QMEG404 and the Key stroke to get back to DOS. SpartaDos that is anything I type just generates a $ (dollar sign) and sometimes a cryptic message. I have downloaded the qmeg404.pdf but is mostly in a language that I can not read. And the helpful hints and keystrokes mentioned in the pdf don't seem to work for me. Is there and\ English Quick Key resource anywhere..
