Mark, Thanx for the reply. I'll be looking forward to using it. BTW, I recommended ProWrite to a fellow engineer at work today who was looking for a word processor for his daughter to use on an Amiga. Keep up the good work. (I'm still waiting for endnotes and table…
Missing Upgrade?
Message #30635
New Horizons, HELP! SAVE MY MARRIAGE!!!!!!! In the first week of October, I mailed in my upgrade from 2.0 for version 3.2 of ProWrite. A few weeks ago I upgraded to 2.0 ROMS. I am now without a working word processor and my wife, who is taking college classes, is…
#2.0 HD Help Needed!
Message #39222
Help! I'm having a strange problem with my A2000 and 2.0. I installed 2.0 today. I have an A2000 (Rev 4.2 Motherboard) with a Pacific Peripherals Overdrive SCSI controller (with the autoboot daughterboard installed) and a quantum 80S hard drive. My problem is that after having installed 2.04, I edited…
Dale, Thanks for the help with identifying the problem. It sure is nice when something goes wrong to be able to come up here for help instead of having to panic and then try to get help from the local dealer (who has half incompetent employees). Catch ya later and…

#A2000 Hardware Problem
Message #36238
Dale, The one game that is guaranteed to mess up is a game called "Drip". I don't know if it is up here in the library or not, but it is an excellent game, verging on commercial quality. The concept of the game is similar to a PacMan, except your…
Aha, I went through this search two months ago. I didn't get an A3000, but instead bought the A2320 enhancer board for the A2000, so I had the same monitor considerations. I finally purchased the CTX International Model 3436. This monitor will scan from 15-38 khz, doing everything the Amiga…
Thanks for the input Roy, I think I am narrowing in on the Aamazing monitors. I'm trying to find out from a reliable source what the scan ranges of the CM 8484EX are. I think it scans from 31.5 to around 38 and has a dot pitch of 0.26. If…
Eric, The Chips that comprise the new chip set are coming out slowly. The first chip out was the two new versions of the agnes chip. One will provide you with 1 meg of chip ram (meant for the A500 and A2000) while the other one will provide you with…
Mike, Thanks for the info. I may have to consider Briwall since I grew up just down the highway in Easton PA. I'm almost 3000 miles away now, but what the heck! Bob – via Whap!
Mark, Thanks for the info. I'll consider what you have to say. Since I still have approximately a month before I'm going to take the plunge, I still get to change my mind 387 times!!! Bob – via Whap!
Mike, Thanks for the info and help. Bob – via Whap!
> drool,drool,drool,…..uh,excuse me Bob – via Whap!
Mike, Ah, thank you! This is the kind of detail I needed. I take it from what you say, that if I buy a multi-sync monitor then I CAN use a standard 15 pin VGA cable. This will simplify things greatly for me. I am still open to suggestions on…
Mike, Thanks for the reply. I see that the C1381 is available from Shopper's Advantage here in CIS for $326.31. That's WAY below anything I could find in this month's Computer shopper. I'll definitely have to consider it. (I'm waiting for a check to come in so I can be…
Dean, Thanks for the reply. It sounds like I can get away pretty safely then with a multi-sync that doesn't go below 31.5 since I don't do any video work and will have my old 1080 around anyway. It seems that some of the less well known brands, such as…
A2320 Monitor Help
Message #29704
To anyone who can help, I am considering purchase the Commodore A2320 de-interlacing board for my Amiga 2000. Since $ are a MAJOR concern for me, I am hoping to get a decent monitor for a reasonable price. I'm starting to think that I can get away with a multi-sync…
I agree with that one all the way!!! In six years, how much has Commodore done to improve the Amiga's capabilities…..How much has NewTek done!!! I don't have any use for the toaster personally, but darn, it sure is nice to see a review in MacUser listing the Toaster's capabilities…
I have to wonder about this power up thing. Let's just say I don't give Commodore too much credit for being benevolent. I'm having a tough time justifying buying an A3000 right now, especially with a lot of the software that I have not being able to work on it.…
The icon is up here in a separate file. The file description indicates that it was accidentally left out. Sheesh, I feel pretty proud of myself. I got up here and searched around manually, not being familiar with CIS, just knowing that Whap! existed and that I needed it and…
