Dean: I haven't tried L-Amiga M, but I CAN tell you that the mouse freezes, and the machine seems to become a doorstop. I had been running AIBB (Ver. 4.1, BTW) out of RAM, but I tried running it off of a floppy as well. Same thing. I even re-booted the machine using a copy of the original Workbench 2.04 floppy, so that NONE of my "extra add-ons" were loaded. Same thing happens. AIBB doesn't even look at the drives… as soon as the message "Evaluating System. Please Wait." fades up, the mouse freezes, and the computer becomes a veritable doorstop. I even went away and came back 30 minutes later… the message was still on the screen, and my screen blanker didn't even take it away. I'm very puzzled. Did I mention that the program SYSINFO will load and perform everything perfectly…. until it gets to "Calculating MFLOPS" in the speed section. The computer then freezes and acts just as it does when I try to load AIBB. Only a CTRL-A-A (reboot) works. I thought it was a bug in the software, but when I downloaded SYSINFO 3.1 and AIBB recently, I began to worry. Is there a problem with my FPU? My copies of DISTANT SUNS / 2.0-FPU and FracBlank_881 work fine….. I'm really puzzled. — Via AutoPilot — Dave
