Andrew, I have set things up as you suggest but still no go, when I boot the Amiga the BB give 4 long bleeps, when I click on PC Mono I get a screen full of garbage and if I do a PC Reset I get another 4 bleeps. The Graphics card itself I have tried in both an 8 bit and 16 bit slot with autodetect enabled and disabled in all configurations the same thing happens. I only have 1 meg on the BB until later this week and I seem to have to have Janus shadowed or the BB wont boot up properly in any mode, which then leaves only 640k for the BB. Would this have any effect?, does'nt seem possible that anything can run in 640k after having 11 meg on the Amiga side if things. I have 2 utility disks with the SVGA, my understanding is that I dont have to install any drivers just to get the thing booted up, is that right?. I realise that I will have to install Windows drivers etc if I ever get that far :-). Thanks for your help Paul Paul Lakey (UK) Enjoying AutoPilot!
