Thierry- I have an A1200 also. Degrader works for some games. Cold start with both mouse buttons held down and choosing boot options works on others. Have discovered that just disabling cache alone works where using all the options doesn't. Unfortunately some games don't seem to work at all. CU…
Edson K. Gray- The 1960 monitor has NO sound. The 1942 monitor has built-in stereo amp. & left and right speakers. Both are multi-sync and have removable swivel-tilt bases.
Garry- Sorry to hear about the bitchy wife. Isn't it nice that computers can be fixed and/or sold. Flying AutoPilot——-Everett—-Portland, Oregon

Karl- Received your upload. Thanks. Was just reading it. Will have to do some studying on it to really understand exactly the significance of what some of the material is. I had the use of a 1000 for a while so I am a little familiar with WB 1.3 and…
Thierry- They should. There was a thread last week or so on this same subject. It seems as if your name is familiar. It also seems that they sell the installation as a separate kit. The TENEX catalogue has an installation kit listed. Someone on your side of the pond…
Thierry- I've used a DEGRADER program that came with an English mag with some degree of success. It has not been 100%. It did however work better,on some programs, than the method of holding down both mouse buttons while rebooting. As to the disk set: The mid-summer 1993 TENEX catalogue…
Karl- I looked through what I thought were the appropriate locations for the file last night and had no luck. I would appreciate you uploading the file. I intend to study it to discover if there are command differences that would account for the install instructions being inaccurate or incomplete…
Ramon- Set your modem software to CIS B(+). I don't know anything about your software. If it doesn't list CIS B (or B+), then shoot another message to this board and someone else will help. Your settings should be 8-N-1 I think. That's what I used with BaudBandit. Am now…
Diane- If you have at least the meg they require AND they're NOT AGA only, they should work. Look for a software rental near you and inquire about the programs you wish to purchase. If they're friendly they'll inform whether or not given programs will run with your configuration. Some…
Karl- I think the differences from 2.04 to 2.1 are probably the most relevent from the standpoint of whether or not a program designed for a 500, for instance, will run on a 1200. Have one shareware program that is fairly new that won't run on my A1200. Do you…
Karl- Noticed your message as I was charging through. I am interested in the differences between ADOS 2.04 and 2.1 also, would like to know if there are any significant changes between 2.1 and 3.0.. Just curious as hell. Does this information exist in AForums anywhere? I have the priveledge…
OK. 40% is still cheaper than prices doubling and tripling. Market speculation is not always a good thing. Not being computerfluent I wouldn't know about the abilities of the manufacturing sector. Everett Oregon
Yep. Everett Oregon
Chris- Here in sunny (read rainy) Oregon there is a place that makes chips with ceramic instead of resin. It's been talked up pretty much around here. Evidently some systems don't need/use the resin jobs. If the computer mfgrs. eliminate the need for resin type chips, then the price of…
Ernest- Remember Pearl Harbor. This 'disaster' if true should be good news in the long run. The Japanese hog has been at the trough for too long. Send them a revolver with one bullet. —USA— Everett Oregon
Andrew- I'm still so new that pitfalls seem to lurk everywhere. I have an A1200 and also DPaintIV. The computer has a VERY noisy floppy drive (like and old C-64 drive with the heads out of alignment). Getting resolution of the problem from CBM service center has been tough. DPaintIV:…
Betty, Okay that explains it. Sure seemed wierd. Thought I was losing it. Thanx much, Everett flying low, on auto // \\// Everett in Oregon
ARTCAT Help!
Message #33656
Question: I d'loaded ARTCAT.LHA last night unarced it and read it using DOpus. It is residing in file drawer of hard drive. Isn't this supposed to be read thru AutoPilot in order to choose item(s) from catalogue? Also, DOpus won't read it today with any method I've tried. Would appreciate…

Michael, You're correct in that the demo will read FORUM messages. It will also write to CMail and Forum. Where the PERCEIVED problem lies is in double clicking the CMail 'button'. This may not be a problem. I have signed up to register my copy of AP. Was just worried…

Message #108429
I am an A1200HD/40 owner. Have a Supra 2400 modem. Will AutoPilot work well with this combination? Also, the demo version won't read messages. Soooo, how am I to receive the binary 'magic' message? Thanx. Everett Nance
thanks
