Gregory, >> but at one time upgrading from 3.0 to 3.1 on a 1200 basically rendered the PCMCIA useless. This was because C= had not developed a version specific to the 1200…
Joe, >> IBrowse needs MUI 3.0. could somone please up load MUI if it is possible. > I look forward to seeing Ibrows here on compuserve because they sait that ith would be Public Domain software.
Gracia, >> It just stays active if it fails for some reason before I get on
Gracia, >>but I can assure you that the Stopnet Icon leaves AmiTCP still active
Gracia, >> there is no other way to stop the action & go offline using INST151's install (except turn off the modem)
Benny, >> >>In the UK the Radio Shack is known as Tandy. In Belgium too.
Paul, >> I tried news://comp.sys.amiga.emulations but it told me that it couldn't get that information.
Steve, >> I wonder if there's some way to find out what else is in there ?
Stephen, >> What i really need is something to use with AmiTCP that will access the Usenet and let me browse thru the groups and download what i want.
Gracia, >> if AmiTCP failed at the startup I can't start again because I'm told AmiTCP is already active
Asha, >> No, I think that's something else. the gvpscsi.device is, I strongly suspect on the GVP board itself in the ROM.
John, >> Do you know if AFS will work with Amiga partitions setup for use in Mac emulator's like ShapeShifter or Emplant? > I could just have AFS ignore the Mac partition so that it will remain a normal FFS partition?
Steve, >> I know the 1M ROM would be faster > And the SCSI option would also be faster
Steve, my guess is that the gvpscsi in the Expansion-library puts the device in memory evertyme 'BindDrivers' is executed. It's certainly not on my HD. Karl Van Hoyweghen on AutoPilot 1.80 Z7 A4000/40-Tower (karl.vanhoyweghen@ping.be)
Alex, >> so how do I get the serial device to conect to my modem at 38400?
Joe, >> I downloaded some Jps and UUe from a newsgroup. How can I view them?
Michael, >> Does anyone know of a shareware program that will lock out bad sectors on a hard disk?
Rafael, >> Well, if you don't mind… 🙂 >Remember this? It comes straight from Holger Kruse. Have you tried it?
Chris, >> When is the AT suppossed to be on TV?
#WTB: 486 Bridgeboard
Message #215227
I'm looking for a Commodore BridgeBoard A2386 upgraded with a Cyrix or Evergreen 486-upgrade. Please CMail if you have one for sale. Greetings, Karl Van Hoyweghen on AutoPilot 1.80 Z7 A4000/40-Tower (karl.vanhoyweghen@ping.be)
#New Virus
Message #215029
Dan, >> Looking through the messages, it seems like there's some debate as to the viability of this process.
Chris, >> My guess is that it wouldn't cost that much to ship it; I mean, the tape isn't that heavy.
Hi paul, >> I'd like to run an Apple version of Photo Shop with a program like Shape Shifter.
Hi alan, >> What are zip and sit files, and what do I need to run them
Hi John, >> who do I get it from?
Hi Geoff, >> Do you know of anything to view #?.bmp files?
Hi Gene, >> Grapevin keeps saying that there is something wrong with socket.config> If you are unfomiliar with Grn please let me know what you use (GUI news reader)
Hi paul, >> I'll look in biz/demo, though last time I checked it wasn't there yet.
Hi Paul, >> Where on earth do I get CyberGraphx from? Every file I see on the web seems to be an update
Hi Marion, >> What version of BBCpuUpgrade.lha is that?
Hi Hank, as others already replied, I think your problem is in the socket.library-emulation. Have you tried other programs that use this library, like Grapevine, etc… . I'll paste my 'ENV:SocketConfig' here: UID=-2 GID=-2 USER=nobody DOMAIN=ping.be UMASK=000 Hope this helps. Karl Van Hoyweghen on AutoPilot 1.80 Z7 A4000/40-Tower (karl.vanhoyweghen@ping.be)
Hi, >> When I try to access the drive from CLI, it says that the drive HD1: is being validated (?)
#BB-upgrade? Read this.
Message #208425
Hi, I just uploaded BBCpuUpgrade.lha to the libs here. If you're planning on upgrading your BridgeBoard with a faster CPU, you must read this AmigaGuide-file. Explanations, addresses, benchmarks, iff-pictures, it's all there. Original author is Remi Lenoir. Should be available in a few days. Enjoy it, Karl Van Hoyweghen on…
Hi Hank, first of all, the 'find buffer' and 'cache miss' are known bugs in ThorTCP. I get them too and they are supposed to be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, just avoid reading and getting messages at the same time. If you use CompuServe to get…
Is Amiga on 24hrs safe?
Message #208340
Hi Asha, >> I've heard that BlitzBlank may have password protection in the next version also as it has been requested many times. If you really need this, check around, you may find what you're looking for.
Hi Mauro, >> Now I just have to wait (or not?) for an A1200 version of Emplant
Hi Larry, From the CVMode-docs: —> Squish & Stretch – Arrow keys + Shit Key
Bart, >> an “air-bubble'' organisation in the style of super-club 50%). I know this from a good source, because I work for Siemens-Belgium. They are planning to use the Escom-stores as the primary distribution-chain for the Nixdorf-harware (PC's, etc…). And Siemens is a big company worldwide, so I don't think…
Hey Peter, I have been looking for a good Amiga-Shop in Belgium lately. I didn't know there was on in Brussels. Could you give me the address of Amiga City? Do they stock PC-Emplant, I can't seem to find it anywhere else. Thanks in advance. Karl Van Hoyweghen on AutoPilot…
Hi Bart, did you notice that "Veronica Computermagazine" is sponsored by Escom and that, when they announced the Commodore-deal, they never once dropped the name Escom at all. Regards, Karl Van Hoyweghen on AutoPilot 1.80 Z7 A4000/40-Tower (kvh@pophost.eunet.be)
Hi Paul, yes, Jim Drew claims that ShapeShifter uses more than 50% of Emplant-code, 30% of AMax-code and even some Apple-code. This allegation seems to be confirmed by someone from BlitterSoft (European distributor for UU) who also examined the code from both products. Al this started more than a month…
PMFJI, I also read the messages about the CD-ROM/GVP-problems, but I think you shouldn't let them scare you. My setup is similar to yours (A4000/40 with GVP A4008 SCSI II-controller) and I have got a NEC 4X CD-ROM -drive and a SyQuest 270 connected to it. It has been running…
Jim my A4000 came with one 4meg SIMM. (it was so high I couldn't use te last expansion slot!) Karl Van Hoyweghen (going offline a few days for rebuilding my A4000 in Z7-tower)
#194036-
Help Me!!
Message #194880
Hi Ian, I had a similar problem some time ago. It got worse and worse. After some time the guru even occured when executing a simple LIST-command. After booting the machine from floppy, the problem was gone. Because I suspected a hardware-problem with the HD I went to my Amiga-shop.…
Try AMosaic, available in the libs here. I think it is the only one available for Amiga-owners at this time. Make sure you download the right version for the TCP/IP-stack you use: MOSTCP.lha if you run AmiTCP, MOSDNT.lha if you use DNet, etc… The current version is 1.2 . You…
There is a navigator-program called AutoPilot in library 9 of the AmigaVendor forum (GO AMIGAVEND). The file is called AP.LHA. It is used by most Amiga-owners for accessing CIS. The prog you download is a demo-version. If you like it, you can register it online here on CompuServe ($69). To…
>> The download kept stopping and starting. I wonder whether Belgacom lines are capable of the higher speeds?
>> Sorry – was offline for a few weeks. What's the latest status on the Amiga, errr, revival?
There's a program called AMPrefs, available on the AMosaic-webpage which is supposed to simplify your mailcap-settings. I have not tried it myself, but maybe that will help you out. If you start AMosaic for the first time, it opens on your WB-screen. If you like it like that, you will…
Hi Bart, Remember that the CIS-node in Brussels is still 9600. I surf the net at 14400 and wouldn't even think about accessing at 9600. Oh well, we'll have 14k4 in a few days (weeks?). Did you read the CompuServe-announcement that says that ALL nodes will be upgraded to 28k8…
