WHAT DOES AASTARTER?
--------------------

The  program  AAStarter  modifies  the "Amiga Early Startup Control".  With
this  change  you  can  use the boot menu with monitors which can't display
15kHz  screen  modes.   The  boot menu is then opened with a DblNTSC screen
mode.


SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-------------------

This  program  needs  the  AA  chipset.   It also needs the kickstart 39 or
higher.   This  program  has  been  tested with various kickstarts (39.106,
40.62 and 40.70).
