#Memory Help
2 messages in this thread
I'm having some difficulties with a program I just bought which uses
only the available "contiguous" expansion memory for an image buffer.
My A2000 has a Progressive '040 card with 8Mb of 32 bit ram, and a
Grand Slam hard card with 4Mb of 16 bit memory. It seems the program
is only using 4Mb of memory for its buffer, and I can't get it to
recognize my additional 8Mb. Can anybody explain "contiguous" memory
to me and suggest a fix ? I'd greatly appreciate it. BTW, the program
is ADPro. Thanks much.
If you go to you cli shell and type avail it will give you systems memory.
It will tell you how much is in use, available, largest block etc. Personally,
I think it is because you have both 16 and 32 bit memory that is causing the
problem. I cannot say for sure since all of the Amigas I have owned have
either had all 16 or all 32 bit memory. Also, try posting a message in the
Amiga vendor's forum under ASDG (the makers of ADPRO) As a quick fix, set you
Adpro buffer to the same size as your largest block. To view your current
buffer size select "about" inside of ADPRO.
Hope this helps.
