Clint, I have a problem with VP running when I have an EGS-workbench clone operating. My guess is that while VP is "initializing" it is polling the workbench screen to decide whether the computer it is running on is ECS or AGA. When it sees that MY EGS workbench screen can have a maximum of 256 colors it makes the reasonable assumption that I have an AGA chipset (which I don't have – I am using an A3000), and tries to set up it's display screen to be a 256 color one. The effort to try to open a 256 color screen on an ECS system leads to fatal error with a requester asking me if I would like to reboot the system! There must be simpler and less error prone method to poll the machine for its display capabilities. I realize that you're REALLY busy, but I do MISS my VP! BTW, there are other prgorams that have problems with an EGS WB, I will issue a list in th enear future for the interested bystanders out there <g>! // ** Commodore ** \X/ -The Bosnia of Computer Companies- -RSL-
