I'VE UPGRADED TO THE NEW WB2.04 AND NOW MY 2088 BRIDGEBOARD RUNS NOTICEABLY SLOWER, IS THERE SOMETHING I SHOULD CHANGE OR MODIFY? THANKS …..ANTHONY

Anthony, Adding 2.04 will not make the BB slow down, however, if you happen to be running the PCWindow on the WorkBench screen, and you've set up your preferences to have the WB screen in heavy overscan or 16 color mode…that can slow things down VISUALLY. The actual operation of the BB is independant of the Amiga, and it works just as fast…but what you see on the screen may be slower due to the Amiga side (what's displaying the picture you see) being overloaded.

thanks i'll reset the wb to default colors and see what happens. i did call commodore and asked about the new janus 2.1, they said that the current janus does affect the way the bb works under 2.04 but they had no release date for the new janus……anthony

Anthony, Yes…there are some problems with 2.04 and the BB, but it's not a speed problem…it's a problem with PCPrefs. Don

ANY SOLUTIONS TO THE PC PREFS PROBLEMS? I KNOW I CAN'T SWITCH TO E=000 AND EVEN SOME PROGRAMS ARE HAVING DIFFICULTY WHEN I SWITCH FROM MONO TO COLOR

Anthony, No…no solution using your Amiga. Unless you can boot it in 1.3 mode that is. The only other solution I know of is to find someone (perhaps your dealer) who has a BB and a 1.3 machine. Run your setups on that machine, copy them onto a floppy and then copy those files onto your PC. Don
