The new AGA checking algorithm worked! VP now runs as nicely as ever! My guess is that it isn't the checking for V39 alone (otherwise others would have found this problem long ago), it's the combination of an ECS system (an A3000 in my case) running V39, AND also having a workbench screen that is capapable of displaying 256 colors. The previous versions of VP considered this (now rare, but soon to be less rare) to be too much like an AGA system, and proceeded to crash, attempting to open a nonexistant AGA screen on my A3000! I'm glad to have the problem fixed. <Now I'll have to get Innovatronics to "fix" CanDo – it has a similar problem.> I also want to thank you here in public for your help with this problem! I know of at least one person on the forum that has not been thrilled with my negative attitude regarding C=, but it's guys like you in this industry, and the forum, that keep me loyal to my old A3000. I'd love to clone you and a couple of other guys here and let them loose on West Chester (can you just see a few hundred Ben William clones overrunning C='s executive boardroom, reducing it to chop sooey<g>)! I just want to reiterate that I (along with a lot of people) appreciate the hard work and care that you take in producing products for the Amiga, and your tireless help when an occassional problem pops up! <Mark – It's guys like this ^ that will bring the Amiga back to full throttle, not a chorus of people whistling the praise of C= on the forum!>
