I recently received a copy of Aegis's Draw2000M which supposedly will access the math chip I have such a chip mounted in the multifunction module of my MicroBotics StarBoard. Does anyone know if this program can use the chip at this address, It doesn't load now, and crashes the system every time. I would appreciate any advice I can get from those more technically knowledgeable types out there. Thanks Peter

Peter, Since you say the program "crashes" on you, it looks like Draw 2000 is designed to use the 68881 as a COPROCESSOR (like the CSA or Ronin boards do) rather than as a DEVICE (like the Microbotics or CMI products use). If you were to load the program into an Amiga with NO 68881 installed it would crash too. Lloyd
