I've just got my BBC B working after ten years and although the computer is working fine I've forgotten how to load a disk. When I did *. it listed all the games on the disk so it's working fine.But I just can't remember how to load the disk.
I tried shift-enter but I don't think this is correct.All I get is 'syntax error' or 'No such variable'.To think I used this computer for nearly 10 years. How brain dead you can get.


To load the program:

1. press the 'shift' key
2. while holding down 'shift', press and release the 'break' key
3. release 'shift'
