Hi Laurie,
Ok, My system in full:
Amiga A2000, WB3.1, Kickstart 40.63 Workbench 40.42
1 meg Chip ram,
GVP "Combo card" 030 @40mhz with a Quantum 540M HD and 16 megs of fast ram
Picasso II,
Emplant Deluxe with external Quantum 540M HD and Apple CD300i CD-ROM
A2386 (Upgraded with a cyrix 486 chip) Bridgeboard with 8 megs of RAM, 200M
HD, 16bit Trident Video Card (in an 8 bit slot!), and 8 bit SCSI card.
2 Monitors, One VGA attached to the BB and a Panasonic Multisync on the Ami
It may not be the fastest, but it does everything I ask of it!
Now, to your BB question, I havn't modified -anything- on the Bridgeboard
side, in fact I'm running the first version of the Janus software that came
with the BB, I'd love the later versions but where on earth would such a
thing be available?. I use the Bridgebaord all of the time… mainly for
writing HTML (I Awrite the files to the Amiga and view them on the Amiga as
I write, plus Amiga scanning software that I've seen is rubbish so I use
the Bridgebords SCSI card to attach my scanner..
the only problem I have is that after switching on or booting the Amiga
with a three finger salute I have to warm boot the BB or Aread/awrite don't
work, this is a common bug..
Any help? 😉
Steve
