SYMPTOMS
Setup may stop responding (hang) after you select your desired setup type
(that is, Complete, Custom, or Minimum) on a Tandy Sensation computer.
RESOLUTION
Most Tandy Sensations use WinMate as their default desktop shell.
WinMate may cause a conflict with the setup procedure and needs to be
disabled by changing the shell= line in the SYSTEM.INI file to read
as follows:
shell=progman.exe
The Program Manager shell is an icon on the WinMate desktop. Even if
Program Manager is started by double-clicking the Program Manager icon,
WinMate is running in memory and may still cause the system to hang.
