1950 Problems…
Message #49773
Ah! So I'm not alone! By jitters… what do you mean? A) When the computer starts up, the whole picture is sort-a fuzzy and shifty but that ends after a while… its as if the monitor forgets what's supposed to go where…. B) While the switch in the rear is…
Registration
Message #38435
Hello everyone… I recently purchased Professional Page 2.0, and am having some trouble. The registration card says to stick on a serial number sticker onto it, and send it along with a copy of my proof of purchase. The Art Department Professional, which I also purchased at the same time,…
#The Ricoh From Hell
Message #14951
I have recently purchased a Ricoh 50mg removable cartrige drive, and there seems no end to the problems I'm having (I have an a3000, and I've attached the drive externally). My problem is that I keep getting checksum errors, or when i'm doing something (moving between directories, copying, etc.) the…
Ok thanks! I'll be looking for one at the local pee-cee clone dealers. Salomon Farin (73737,2421) Miami Beach, FL
Yep, there internal I forgot about all those programs I added to the c: directory, sorry. I've heard that adding buffers slows down hard drives, but the quantum drives inside the a3000 are MUCH faster than the seagate I own. Salomon Farin (73737,2421) Miami Beach, FL
OOOPS, sorry, my mistake. I just checked, and your right. Salomon Farin (73737,2421) Miami Beach, FL
I don't have Word Perfect but I can help you on the other questions. The partion for 1.3 is hidden by the beta os, to select the os you want to use for you session push both mouse buttons at bootup. After that (if you selected in 2.0) pushing both…
Micheal, Not getting 1.3 partion in 2.0 is normal, the beta os hides it. What I wanted to know was what are the numbers you get under 'size' when you type INFO from the cli, when you add up WB_2.x and Work you should have less than the 100 meg…

AmigaVision
Message #112368
It can read ANIM files, I don't know if it can manipulate them or create them. Salomon Farin (73737,2421) Miami Beach, FL
Have you tried the libraries in AmigaArts? COMICS? How about the graphics forums, you know, COMART, GALLERY, QPICS, CORNER? If you have a digitalizer or scanner (I don't) you could get it out of Time magazine or Nintendo ads. Salomon Farin (73737,2421) Miami Beach, FL
Another example of me writing a message at the wrong time, in this case I was too happy for my own good (no traffic jams on my way home!!!). Uploads are free, I see no reason why people wouldn't upload there creations. Its not like CanDo, where only a select…

#CBM Announces CDTV!
Message #111846
Shame, maybe furture versions will be able to output stand alone programs. Typical. Commodore manuals are turning into walk-throughs, but, I think to beginners (to commodore computers or computers in general), its easier to learn that way. In a few months or so, the libraries I expect the libraries to…
Ok, thanks. I thought it would go faster through the serial port, oh well.
#Null modems and me
Message #109540
? I would like to know how I should go about attaching a null modem to connect one amiga to another (what hardware, and software (?) do I need). [A What I would like to do is transfer a large amount of files from the hard drive on an amiga…
ooops, I mean't that motorola didn't make them. They really have something there… One final question: Is Signetics here on ci$??? other than that, thanks for answering my questions on the 68070.
Oh, so its from another company, then hmmm…. Is it faster/better than the say, 68×00,x10,x20? And whats an I2C interprocessor port? {oooops, forget the 68×00, x10. Does having all those extras slow down the processor?} Thank you for your help.
68070? Got any specs on it? (Is is cheap? (er…inexpensive) How fast?)
TAD picture max…
Message #17281
Does TAD support images that are larger than the amigas current sceen maximum of 640×400? Do the modules? You probably have already answered this before, but is TAD compatible with the Amiga 3000 and OS 2.0? (I've preordered) Thanks.
