You need to select TTY emulation, under the terminal selection. // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
ami/Ibm
Message #32539
What you need is a program like Multi-Dos (PD?/Sharware?) or a commercial program such as Cross-Dos, but if you upgrade to WB 2.1, Cross-Dos comes built in. They both allow you to transfer data back & forth seamlessly, a 720k formatted floppy if you have the standard (880K) Amiga floppy…
CD ROM install?
Message #77827
How do you go about cleaning a CDROM drive? Well they do make CD cleaning disks. I think they would work with a CDROM drive as well as a regular Compact Disc player. // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
New HP Laser 4!

And how about their new HP550c B^) Do you have any details on it? What has changed between the 500c and the 550c? // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
They already do have 256MB 3.5" MO disk drives. The ad I'm looking at is near the back of an issue MacWorld. It's being distributed by Ocean MicroSystems, Inc. (800-944-6232). It's called The 'Vista V256'. It'll read/write the standard 128MB disks as well. The price is $1748.00, additional 256MB cartridges…
What's the cost of upgrading from version 1.5 to 2.0. Have their been any changes to 2 of my pet peeves with CanDo 1.5? 1) The File Requester (ugh): Is their anyway to call an external file requester, like at least the ASL.library or req.library? 2) The Slider Gadgets: I've…
Yes, please do. Give us an update, on how you feel about the A4000 now. Thanks! B^) // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
Have you tried removing the internal terminator? I'm sure you've made certain that all the devices have their own SCSI ID, haven't you. B^) // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
You should have gotten at least version 2.1 of ADPro. I recently bought a used copy of ADPro ($120 + the extra loaders disk) and it was version 2.1.3. Where did you buy it from? // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
If your going to alot of printing of pics, you might want to look into purchasing ADPro (Art Department Pro), or Imagemaster. ADPro will print to your printers highest resolution with 24bit accuracy, I believe ImageMaster will do the same, but as I've never used it, I can't say for…
Your right I just read my original message and the English pound sign in my message did change to a # sign. Oh well… Just trying to help. // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
Then I was right in the first place, in that it was NewTek didn't follow CBM's specs. Thanks. B^) // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
RBR> Can anyone tell me how to generate the English pound symbol,with AP? Try, R-Alt L (that's Right-Alt L), eg. #499 // Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot \X/
BB> What's around that will do or do better then the toaster? I would BB> like to use a 486/50 For it's price range and for all it does, nothing touches the Toaster. I was just scanning through the November issue of Byte. In it they review a number of…
BL> The Toaster appears to follow the spec. quite well. It is the A3000 BL> that does not have a full size video slot opening. Thanks, I was going by memory when I wrote that. And now that I think about it, it IS the other way around. It was…
A green screen? According to the information I have, a green screen means that there is an error in Chip ram? What that could mean, might be the Fat/Super Agnus chip has become partially unseated or the ram chips have become unseated. You might try reseating them yourself or have…
Where did you here this rumor about a Syquest 128meg 3.5" removable HD. Is it supposed to be a MO drive? I guess it would have to be for a 3.5" drive. I was thinking of getting a Syquest 88meg HD. It seems to be a very cost effective way…
Why are Commodore and NewTek not on speaking terms at the moment? I don't remember the exact details. I think it started with with the A3000 and the fact that the Toaster wouldn't fit in it without making a small modification to the A3000's case. I believe NewTek didn't follow…
Is the 52meg GVP Hard drive and Series II A500-HD+ with 4megs of ram in its own little box? Does it have its own power supply or is it being powered from your Amiga 500. If it's drawing power from your Amiga 500, it sounds like the power supply is…
I don't know anything about the modem, but do you have RTS/CTS hardware flow control set in preferences, and not Xon/Xoff flow control? If the latter, set it to RTS/CTS. Let me know if that fixes the problem. Lee Olsen / Orlando, FL – on AutoPilot
If you mentioned the Toaster and Amiga in the same sentence, then that was the problem. It seems that Commodore and NewTek (the people who make the Toaster)
JS> … I know in super hi-res mode, it is necesary to turn the flicker JS> off in order to prevent the "missing pixel syndrome" what can I do JS> then? I don't want to have to keep switching the cable on the JS> monitor… Well what I've done is…
I just read a transcript of a recent BIX conference, regarding the A4000, AmigaDOS 2.1, and AmigaDOS 3.0. With some of the Engineers that develop the hardware answering the questions. But regarding your question on whether the AGA chip set will be available for A500/A2000 owners down the line, the…

If someone should have the file 'XpkMaster.Library' could you please upload it. It's for use with Multi-player (the Mod music player). It automatically unpacks PowerPacked modules. Why the author didn't just use the powerpacker.library to call on, to unpack them instead of writing one from scratch, I don't know. Thanks…
RSL> Thanks for your reply. Timm's BBS appears to be operational again, but I still don't have access to the beta area. Since it is an expensive toll call, I don't have the luxury to review the message area. Well you could always open a capture buffer to gather all…
I asked the person who knows him, and he said he's spoken with him on the p phone a few times, and that he was just overburdened with his new job. Sorry, I don't have any new information.
I haven't found out anything yet (AmiExpo and all here in Orlando), but I'll see what I can find out tommorrow.
Well, I heard that he had gotten a major programming job at/for Proctor & Gamble, and he was in the process of moving (of which P&G was paying for). And that SID 2.0 was put on the back burner (so to speak) temporarily. But this was about a month ago.…
Hi Betty, I am the owner of a brand new USR Dual Standard I was wondering if you know of the correct settings for the modem to logon to CIS here at 9600bps. If you don't know. Is there anybody else out there who does.

#AMAXII Buggy?!
Message #9899
Great! Thanks for the info. By the way what will be the future of Amax II since Apple stopped selling their Roms to the general public. Is Readysoft still plan on developing, releasing Amax II+, or should I buy the Amax II now, while their are still some supplies of…
How long have you had your Ricoh removeable drive. I have one on order but GVP says they are back ordered 30 days. Are you using it under AMAX and if so how does it work. Thats one of the reasons I bought (buying) the Ricoh drive. Instead of having…
ATonce
Message #6241
I'm interested in the ATonce, but in the ad, it says it won't work with accelerator boards (I have an '030 board). Is there any they could coexist in the same co-processor slot. Perhaps plugging the ATonce in the slot and then plugging in the accelerator board, sort of like…
