Methinks you've got your line numbers mixed up; first incorrect symbol that stands out at me is on this line:

term.setTextColor(colors.lime print("Thanks for using BZGamingOS")

You've got a "p" where a bracket or comma should go.

It also looks a bit like your "end"s are messed up throughout the script. Consider splitting up your statements into individual lines, and indenting correctly - you'll find it a lot easier to track your problems.

I fixed that still has same error

If you really addressed all those issue, at the very least your error would now point to a different line number. Post the new code.

Id fixed some others to it just conpressed it

All ther terms are on the line down

Try changing this to a single equals sign (line 12 I believe):

drawMenu1 == function() 

Ill try that

It dident work it sead it was unexpected

What was unexpected where, exactly?

That is to say - post the whole error message.

I fixed one i deleted th _ma =
I now get this error bios:14: [string ".temp"]:19: '=' expected

On line six after Booleans

I fixed that error now i have
bios :14: [string ".temp"] :57: 'then' expected

New code

The number 57 tells you the line the error is on. You've got something there that shouldn't be - like a single equals sign, perhaps - and so the interpreter is asking if you meant to put a "then" in that particular spot.

Just copied the last one and edited dont liesen to code at top of this post

Disingard this post i forgot it if you commet after your self it up dates previous post

A few things:

• That code is only 49 lines
• Please indent your code, makes it easier to read and spot missing 'end's and such
• While that's a perfectly valid way to define functions, it makes your code a bit messier
• I've fixed the formatting and syntax (but not the logic) of your code:

--Varibles
version = 3.0 
running = true
_dt = paintutils.loadImage("/os/.backgrounds/dt")
_ms = 0

--Functions
function clear() 
  term.setBackgroundColor(colors.orange) 
  term.clear() 
  term.setCursorPos(1, 1) 
end

function drawMenu1()
  term.setCursorPos(1, 2)
  term.setBackgroundColor(colors.white)
  term.setTextColor(colors.red)
  print("[power]")
end

function drawTaskBar()
  term.setCursorPos(1, 1) term.setBackgroundColor(colors.red) term.clearLine()
  term.setCursorPos(1, 1) term.setBackgroundColor(colors.lime) term.setTextColor(colors.white) 
  term.write("[Menu]") 
end

function drawDeskTop()
  term.setBackgroundColor(colors.orange)
  term.clear()
  term.setCursorPos(1, 1)
  paintutils.drawImage(_dt, 1 ,1) 
end

function stop()
  clear() 
  running = false
  term.setTextColor(colors.lime) 
  print("Thanks for using BZGamingOS") 
end

function runTime() 
  while running do 
    local event, button, x, y = os.pullEvent("mouse_click") 
    if _ms == 0 and button == 1 and x < 7 and y == 1 then 
      drawMenu1() 
      _ms = 1 
    elseif _ms == 1 and button == 1 and y == 2 and x < 7 then 
      stop()
    elseif _ms == 1 and button == 1 and x < 7 and y == 1 then 
      init() 
    end 
  end 
end

function init() 
  _ms = 0 
  drawDeskTop() 
  drawTaskBar() 
  runTime() 
end

--Main Stuff 
init()

Finally, put your code between

 [/.code] tags (without the period)

Thank you for simplify that

I fixed it ther was a missing and on line in the 40's thers no more errors, thanks bomb bloke and HPWebcamAble for the help
