Hello Community.

I was new to Computercraft.
I play Tekkit and there were all these Fantastic Computers and Turtles but I have a big Problem…

Every Time when I try to Start/reboot/terminate the Computer it won't work …

I Tried STRG+T , STRG+R, STRG+S (STRG is the German Keyboard Key for CTRL)

But it don't work … I tried with ALT+T,S,R but it didn't make a difference.

What i'am doing wrong so far ?

You have to hold CTRL+T (and others) for a few seconds, usually somewhere around 10 seconds.

Not sure about 10, it usually lasts 2-3 for me. But yes, you do have to hold it down.

Another trick, if you for some reason have issues with this is to use label set to set a name for your computer. Than you can just break it and place it down again and it will retail all previous programs. This is especially useful for turtles that tend to wonder off if you have your code wrong.
