It is in devs:Monitors. I just forgot to be more explicit. Thanks, Stuart
#More Euro36 quests.
Message #187520
I placed an earlier message about taking the steps described in the download text on using the Euro36 monitor device to reduce flicker on a 15Khz 1084s. I'm currently in NTSC mode which had not been tested with respect to the text. I'm willing to give it a try. Another…
#No flicker questions
Message #187517
To anyone with info on the following: I downloaded a recent upload of info about using the Euro36 monitor device to reduce flicker on an interlaced 15khz monitor (1084S). I need info on the following subjects 1. What and where do I find a "filezapper" or whatever to edit the…
You broke my heart. My concern as that this is the definite first sign of the true fall of the Amiga. I don't want to be glum but it looks like "That's all folks" for the Amiga. I'll keep my Amiga until it's ridiculous at any point to do so.…
Do you think you friend would be willing to open his miracle piano and maybe you open yours and compare notes to see if the wiring/component configuration is different. Things to check for would be items such as miracle port wiring and the driver chip/hardware that drives the miracle port…
#Miracle Piano
Message #168430
I called Software Tool Works and the technician of course informed me that the Miracle Piano is no longer supported for Amiga and the software archives have been exported entirely to UK. He didn't seem to have a problem with copying of old Amiga releases of this software. I asked…
Cassette Covers
Message #168429
Has anybody ever used CassLabel 2.0. I'm trying to determine whether to register but I can't get the results I want based on limited knowledge of the program. It is an MUI driven program and I have the latest MUI. The problem I'm experiencing is understanding the formats and drivers…
Graphics and Monitors
Message #163970
All, I have some confusions about the Amiga's graphics and video output capabilities. The following lists those points of confusion. Could someone please clarify or give me a good reference source. 1. What kind of video output does the Amiga compare to in reference to say PC terms such as…
CrossDos Not Working
Message #163649
I'm having a problem with CrossDos on my Amiga. When I start CrossDos, it is merely flashing the pop-up and immediately terminates. The PC0: driver has been placed into the appropriate DEV drawer. I'm currently running an Amiga 2000HD with GVP 030/40/4/ accelerator with MagicWB and MagicMenus. Does anybody have…
#Miracle Piano
Message #162906
If I buy one I may initially hold on to the PC software since my wife has a laptop. I would need to see how available the Amiga software would be for the Miracle piano. You mentioned a "Miracle Port" cable. Wouldn't I need this to connect to the Amiga.…
#Amiga Miracle Piano
Message #43158
All, Does anyone currently own a "Miracle Piano" for the Amiga? I understand that Software Tools no longer supports the "Miracle Piano" for the Amiga. It is currently only supported for the Macs and PCs. I've heard however that the PC Miracle Piano will work on the Amiga if your…
Thanks John. I've been wanting this demo because it's what turned me on to the amiga years ago. Once again, thanks!
#Juggler/Boing
Message #42930
Jim, I've checked the files for several days now and have seen no sign or "hair" of the original juggler or boing. You said it may take a couple of days before the files appear. How long is a "couple of days" and does this mean they must go through…
DKB Trace Problems
Message #40076
I am having some problems processing some of the examples that came with the program (i.e. those .dat files found under data). The example "sunset.dat" processes OK. Typing in the examples (e.g. various spheres) also process OK. However, many of the examples invariably crash the system (i.e. Guru or the…
#Flicker/Video Res
Message #135909
I would like to know if there is any way to resolve flicker problems on a 1084S monitor or if flicker can only be resolved on a mulitsync monitor. What are my options. I like running in the 640×400 mode with MagicWB. What other resolutions is the Amiga capable of…
A3000 Software
Message #130684
Hello I've got a question about an Amiga2000HD with a GVP 030/4/4/40 accelerator, complete ECS chip set, and Workbench 2.1. The GVP documentation basically indicates that any software that will run on an A3000 will run on my current configuration assuming it doesn't require more than 4-5 Megs of memory.…
#Word/Text Processing
Message #128480
I would like to know what and where the easy avialability is for PasTex or AmigaTex. I downloaded TPP without realizing that it is a front end processor for either of the above. Now I need one of the above. Does anybody have suggestions on which text processor is easier…
#Garbage Chars
Message #111224
Since I've figured out how to use Backtalk by setting the modem up properly, I have another question about garbage ( or something) when connected to Compuserve. I did not experience this garbage with A-talk III. When the compuserve prompts appear, I am seeing characters such as 'Y', 'Y&' and…
#Accelerators/Rodime
Message #110891
Bill, I'm pretty sure that I do have the 2090 hard disk controller. The disk drive however does not appear to be an ST-506. I believe that it is a Rodime 5035 (not sure about the number-I'd have to open the box to find out the exact model number). It…
#Accelerator Info
Message #110803
Hi I'm planning on buying an accelerator card of some sort. I've been considering the GVP 030/40/4 card. This card as I understand has a SCSI interface. Is this to say that it will not work with my A2000HD Rodime hard drive. I'm pretty sure that I do not have…
Accelerators
Message #109967
Howdy, Well the modem settings were obviously crucial in order to get Backtalk to work properly. Thanks Steve. Next question. Do you have any suggestions when buying accelerator cards. Will they work with non-scsi disk drive configs? If you add extra non-accelerator memory (e.g. supra 4-Mb memory board) will they…
#Comm Problems
Message #109388
Hi Again, It's me the big kid with the communications problems when trying to use bplus or quickb. I tried to use "backtalk" but it locked up on me every time I tried to use it. The message at the bottem inidicates "Scroll Lock On". The "backtalk" documentation never mentions…
#Backtalk Problems
Message #107668
Hello Again, As usual, I'm having communication problems or as it was once said "What we have here is a failure to communicate". I downloaded Backtalk and placed the appropriate libraries in there proper respective directories as instructed by the documentation. The problem I'm having is after Backtalk is executing,…
#File Download Protocols
Message #104067
Hello again Could you or someone please tell me which protocol is the most efficient protocol to use when downloading stuff from compuserve. I am currently running A-talk III with a ZOOM 2400 baud modem. I have been using the Kermit protocol. I tried using the Compuserve B+ protocol included…
Thanks
Message #102797
Betty Thanks for all your help. It is most appreciated from somebody who is still getting use to the Amiga environment. Once again. Thanks!
Archiving
Message #102478
Hi All, I'm having a problem when trying to use lharc to uncompress a file with a .lha extension. I'm getting error from lharc stating it does not understand -lh5- compression and suggests that maybe I need a newer version of lharc. Is this true or do I need an…
