Hi, I've written about this before but the advice received hasn't helped much, therefore I'll try once again. 8) I have a vanilla Amiga 2000 (68000), GVP autobooting HD, 2058 RAM expansion card(fully populated), WB 2.04 ROM w/software and a brand new SupraFAXModem V.32 (supports v.42bis). The latter is the problem. I use BackTalk as my term program and am having total failure using the xprzmodem protocol. I have RTS/CTS set in prefs with the speed set to 9600(I also tried the 2 higher settings), XON/XOFF is set to off, 8N1 is set, text gadget filter is off. BackTalk has a mostly default setup in BT.cfg(screen colors are different), the modem init. string is 'AT &F2'(modem defaults). Whenever I try to use xprzmodem(also set to the protocols defaults) I get 'error bad CRC','bad Header','garbage detected in header'…this repeats until the default error count(10) terminates the D/L then 2 screens of total garbage ensues. I have tried connecting in 'normal' mode (no error correction/no compression) to forcing it attempt v.42bis or die modes. Nothing seems to work and all produce the same results. I have also checked my cable (it's fine). Xprquickb works fine as do the other protocols except zmodem. I have reD/L'd it to ensure it isn't corrupted…same results. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeff P.S. The modem has been checked and is performing to specs.
