- I have vist 3.0 on my 4k with a piccolo card runnning cybergfx.
- But vista just refused to load. I worked out why this was.
- My workbench was on a piccolo screen and vista 3.0 tries to lock onto
- the parent screen without much luck so if you mode promote it with
- newmode (3.9) it loads a screen and then 5secs later guru`s you.
- The only way I have got vista to work was buy putting workbench on a
- normal amiga screen and then promoting vista to super72:super hires
- laced. It owrks for only this resalution.
- This has to be the strangest way i`ve ever seen a program work????
-
- Anybody any ideas why they coded it this way. I mean in the age of gfx
- cards and multi resulation surely you should be able to open it on any
- of screen mode.
