Then, when I typed in 'DOS' and pressed return, the PG loaded DOS v3.3. And now when I start it up, it automatically starts DOS, when earlier it started S5 DOS. Any help appreciated.

My PG 685 have MS-DOS Ver. 2.11 and CP/M 86 Ver. 2.0/2 b. In HDPARTY you choose the active partition and then restart your PG. And with little bit of luck it starts in this Partition Hope it works!
