Help! I am using Disk Expander and am having trouble with Opalvision. I can open OV with no trouble and paint all I want, but when I try to load a picture, I get a system request with the message "stack overflow". I tried increasing the stack on the Opalpaint icon, but it still crashes my system. Any suggestions??? BTW I am using an A3000 w/10meg.

Have you attempted to disable Disk Expander and load the picture to make sure the problem is Disk Expander? Disk Expander is buggy — it messes up on a call to open a file, and if the first doesn't exist, create it — Disk Expander doesn't allow the file to be created. I've not heard it refusing to read existing files, tho. -sja

I'll try disabling it and see if that helps… By the way, why would I be getting a stack overflow message?

Dan, I don't know … I just threw out a suggestion to try disabling Disk Expander as it is known to be buggy in at least one instance.
