JEFF, Followed your advice and bought a copy of GVP's ImageFX 1.5 and it doesn't work – or at least the scanner section doesn't work. I installed the program as advised onto my hard drive and everything went well, it loaded OK. I followed the instructions as per Chapter 2 and 3 of the manual. With regard to the scanner I selected the EPSON option (though I notice the manual says it only supports the EPSON 300C) the guy in the shop (SILICA, Glasgow) told me it would work with my GT-8000. From page 5-3 of the manual I attempted to run the scanner module, but all that happened was that the ready light on the scanner went out and the 'watch/busy' icon on the screen appeared …… and that was that – nothing else happened. According to the manual I should have been put into the scanner option frames but this does not happen – all I am looking at is the 'watch/busy' icon. It does not look as though the computer is freezing up as I can move the icon easy enough but if I press elsewhere on the screen nothing else happens. Can you advise? My system is:- AMIGA1200 M1230XA 50mhz accelerator with 68882 50mhz co-pro 8Mb fast ram 250Mb Maxtor IDE hard drive. also connected to computer is SupraFax v32bis modem and 1960 monitor. Thanks for any help you can offer. IAIN. CALLING IN FROM SCOTLAND ON A 68030/50/50 AMIGA1200! ON AUTOPILOT 1.72
