5.31 is the development Beta version - on the same download page as
5.30.

I would recommend updating from 5.24 to 5.28 first.
This can update your !Boot with the changes (though you should take a
copy of your !Boot first in case of problems).

Then if 5.28 is ok, update to 5.30, again it will update your !Boot.
5.31 is probably to be avoided for you unless you really want a beta
development version!

However, 5.28 downloads are no longer available - one of the downsides
of being on such an old version.  If you want, I could email them to
you, if you email me at riscos@av... not this news03 one.

If you try to go directly friom 5.24 to 5.30 you will have to start
with a new copy of !Boot, and then copy all your changes in to it.

I am not saying that updating to 5.30 will fix your problems, but at
least it would mean that there are many others running the same
version, and may be able to help.

If it all fails, if you have sufficient backups you can always revert
to the original position.
