GVP A530 turbo
Message #196114
I have an A530 Turbo. I was performing a low level format on the Maxtor drive prior to a bad block remap after an unending string of checksum errors. A power outage interrupted me. When I rebooted the system, the A530 would not mount since the software on the drive…

#GVP DSS 8 sampler
Message #194784
If it's in good working order and comes with software, it sounds good. Why are you interested in selling it? Please reply with the particulars concerning the DSS8, version of software and the other sampler you have. If you'll provide a mode of payment acceptable to you, I'll provide you…
This does appear to be farse of Shakespearean proportions. Most of the jury appears to be racist with their "minds" already made up. It seems every legal move is based on "political correctness" aimed at avoiding large scale race riots in LA. O.J. will walk. By the way "…let's kill…

I wish the same were true for the price of operating in a multi-platform environment. It's just a shame that many Amiga and MAC lovers are rather rudely forced to bend the knee to the "grand old goat heads" (IBM & Microsoft) if we wish to continue doing business in…
Just how much is goat snot worth these days anyway? jf – lamplight productions ~~~sailing on autopilot~~~
#Amiga MOD to PC MOD
Message #44348
Hey Music Lovers! Is there a software (or any) solution to converting MOD files created and saved in Amiga MOD programs to a format compatible with PC MOD files allowing them to be played and manipulated in PC MOD programs? Whew, I hope so after asking that long-winded question. Any…
Bill, Have recently worked through a similar situation. I've got a Zenith VGA hooked up to an A500 with Flicker Free Video2. I miss the ability to genlock out of my A500 to the TV or VCR and the obviously better video I/O capabilities of the 1084S. Any suggestions? The…
#flicker fixer
Message #165148
Thanks for the word, Tom. I've been told the original flicker fixer and the later flicker free video cards are no longer being manufactured by ICD as they are out of business…hoping to find a new or used one hiding out somewhere. jf – lamplight productions ~~~sailing on autopilot~~~
flicker fixer
Message #165147
Thanks for the word Terry. I'll be calling DeVine soon. The MONED shareware program will allow you to tinker with the Amiga monitor drivers at your own risk but I think it allows only small adjustments of the Amiga output video. jf – lamplight productions ~~~sailing on autopilot~~~

I'm looking for a flicker fixer, flicker free video or flicker free video 2. Please reply if you'd like to sell…new or used in good condition, or know where I can find one. Also, if there is a software solution to eliminating flicker, I'd appreciate knowing about it. What I…

I had a problem with Grapevine. They charged my credit card for an order I hadn't received. I called them and they said the item was no longer in stock so they'd chargeback. Other items on that same order were never received. I was calling from Texas, so I figured…
Ron, Thanks very much for the help! The fonts are on a CD rom. I access them from the CD hooked up to my Amiga, but none of the fonts show up in the Outline Font Source window in Fountain. I assume this is because they are not CompuGraphic…they don't…
#font conversion
Message #154994
What is the best and fastest method to get fonts from an MS-DOS CD rom to Amiga DOS format for use by Fountain? How do you tell that an MS-DOS font is Compugraphic? How can you get it in bitmap or outline form so that Fountain can deal with it?…
Nathan, I was making a joke, but you missed it because of your obvious hate for those who believe in God. Let's see, you assume that I am intolerant because I am a Christian…WRONG! All of us have the free will to be and believe whatever we choose. The Pope…

Jon, I had this problem when I added a CD-ROM drive to my GVP SCSI-2 accelerator & HD. When I checked Disconnect Off on my hard drive using Expert Prep, I didn't get the unexpected status message anymore. Perhaps you should try turning DC off on your HD device 6.…

Gary, Thanks for the suggestions. The GVP tech suggested removing the Disconnect On flag from the hard drive using Expert Prep. That did the trick. jf – lamplight productions ~~~sailing on autopilot~~~
#SCSI II & NEC CD prob
Message #77760
Dear GVP, I have a GVP A530 Turbo with Series II SCSI running on my A500. I recently added an NEC 3xp CD-ROM to my system. When running AsimTunes (the audio CD player program with ASIMCDFS control software from ASIMWARE) and occasionally when opening files and working in the CLI,…
#Is monitor compatible?
Message #40259
I picked up a Zenith ZCM-1492 Color Monitor with an IBM compattible system recently. It is VGA compatible and supports an analog RGB color signal and a 31.49 kHz horizontal scan and requires a 60 – 70 Hz vertical scan refresh rate. The video connector is a 15 pin D-type…
is monitor compatible?

#Autors of the Bible
Message #118450
When you replied to a message that "personally I don't care who wrote it" you made a very good point. It doesn't matter who wrote it as much as what was written and how after all this time the Bible still impacts our daily lives. The accuracy of its prophecy…
