#3ds CD Problem
I tried to view the GIF portfollio on my 3ds r3 World-Creating Toolkit CD for
the first time. I can't get it to work right!
I changed to the \SAMPLES directory and typed DEMO. The following text came
up:
<<VGASHOW V1.81, one of the T-TOOLS utilities from Videotex Systems, Inc.
(c)Copyright Videotex Systems, Inc. 1990,1992
Specialists in imaging software – call (214) 343-4500
Purpose: displays TGA, PCK, TIF, BMP, GIF files on your PC screen.
VGASHOW created with the T-BASE library available from Videotex.>>
The screen then started blinking a light purple color and the text changed to
light colored boxes. The screen then went dark except for the cursor flashing
about a fourth of the way down the screen along the left edge. There were also
20 columns of dashed lines about the size of of cursors which appear to be
scrolling down the screen. The columns appear about 1/2" apart. i.e.,
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I hit the spacebar or excape to try to stop it. The screen then goes
completely dark. It's like my computer locks up. I then have to do a warm
boot.
Do you have any ideas on what the problem is? This is the first time that I
have tried to use the World Creating Toolkit. I do not have a sound card. I
don't know whether that would make a difference or not.
