#BB A2286 Problem
3 messages in this thread
Since a few days I have problems with my VORTEX GOLDEGADE 386SX. So I send
the pice in to VORTEX. Meanwhile I installed my old C= A2286 to have
access to my WORD5.5 datas. With my GG I used a VGA-card and still try to
use it with the A2286 (according handbook it is possible), however it
seems working fine with using the mouse but it don,t take any keystroke no
cursor movement at all. I also just updated MSDOS 5.o to 6.0 is it
possible that maybe there is something wrong? If anybody has experianced a
problem like this, I appreciate every advice.
thanks.

Horst, since you have a VGA-card I assume you have a switch box to switch
between the Amiga video and VGA video going to your monitor. At the risk
of sounding too elementary, an obvious cause for the mouse to work but not
the keyboard is that you do not have the BridgeBoard window on the Amiga
side as your active window. With separate VGA video on the Bridgeboard
it's not always obvious if the BridgeBoard window on the Amiga side is
still your active window especially if you are sharing the same mouse on
both the Amiga and BridgeBoard.
Ronnie,
you,r right, I found this out yesterday late night after getting angry a
few times. And it is so simble after all and logic. Well, sometimes i
wonder why I sit on this computer instead of going fishing or something
easy like that. Now I have to remember to bring the PC-Window infront
before I switch over to the PC-side.
Thank you for your reply.
