How did you install 6.20 - did you follow the instructions including 
how to reset the CMOS and check for unplugged Modules etc.. If not you 
will get problems.

No! If you want to remove RO 6.20 you should have an uninstaller on 
your hard drive in a folder called RISCOS6, that will swap the RISCOS 
!Boot's over (provided you have kept the old one which would have been 
saved as Bootxxxx where xxxxx is a number).

You could of course simply rename the existing 6.20 !Boot and install 
the emergency basic RISC OS 6 !boot on the CD.

If not then grab a copy of the 4.39 !Boot file from the RISCOS Ltd 
site. and then rename existing !Boot and copy the 4.39 one. You will 
then know you have a good clean copy.

I strongly suspect you have not followed the instructions properly

Get the latest version of !ARViewer from M W Software website, it 
works fine on 6.20 and 4.39.

Clib 5.53 should work fine on both 4.39 and 6.20.  If not then you 
have other issues.
