Hi, Mario...

I found startup.mar in Guide8's root directory. I didn't think Guide would
even open without the file being in this directory, so I renamed it to
Xtartup.mar and as expected, Guide crashed. As far as I can tell, if Guide
even opens for you, startup.mar must be present in this directory. This is
with using Win98SE.

Incidentally, I'm using the 4 May 2002 version of G8. I seem to recall
seeing file dates later than this mentioned in this list, so d/l guide.zip
and installed it. Since Guide Help still shows the same date, is there a
later version somewhere?
