Stephen, I experienced a similar problem, my Scroll and Crawl Pages were magenta until I hooked up a monitor to the Amiga Video port (23 pin connector). Since I was using a Flicker Free Video II, I had no need of the amiga's video out, so I thought. Once I hooked up a (second) monitor to the video port, my scroll and crawl pages were white, or whatever other color I wanted. In the Toaster Manual I have (3.1/4000), in the troubleshooting section, it says: "If you have an Amiga 2000 or 3000 You must have EITHER an RGB monitor OR RGB terminator connected to the video output connector for the Toaster's encoder to operate correctly. On the Amiga 2000, this connector is labeled VIDEO. On the Amiga 3000, it is labeled 15 KHz – Video. If there is neither a terminator nor a monitor connected to this port, the Toaster will not output proper video levels." Note: the monitor must be turned on for this to work. Hope this helps. -danny
