Does the Battery Watcher program store its information in GEOS.INI?
If this is so, it would make sense why my mine resets on reboot. Every
Reboot I copy GEOS.NEW to GEOS.INI beause I have a few changes that I
wanted to make in GEOS.INI. Could Battery Watcher be changed to store
its info in a file of it own?
