- Hi!
-
- Recently I started using Shapeshifter V3.3 (System 7.5.1) with 16 colors on my
- A1200 with Blizzard 1230II (4+16 MB FastRAM, SCSI-Kit).
-
- My problem is that at most times wrong colors are displayed: The apple of the
- Apple-Menu (upper left corner :-) is black, the background is blue-magenta and
- all icons in the finder-windows appear in only one color (of cause one color on
- white background :-).
-
- I think, there is something wrong, because after doing "something special" the
- display is looking much better (especially with Aaron): The "apple" is colored,
- the background is grey and the icons are also colored. E.g. after turning on
- "16 greys" in the monitor control panel and choosing "16 colors" again
- everything looks nice. But right after activating some windows of the finder the
- display turns back to the bad look described above :-(
-
- While booting System 7.5.1 the colors are OK. It seems as if they turn bad when
- the finder is active the first time during system-startup.
-
- My problem does *not* depend on:
-
- 1) turning on/off system extensions (like Aaron). I got bad colors when turning
- on only the extensions of System 7.5 and even when I turn off all extensions.
-
- 2) the video-driver I use. I tried it with the internal one from Shapeshifter,
- with "AGA-EVD" (Versionstring: "ECS 1.0") and with "AmigaAGA-EVD" V1.2.
-
- *PLEASE* help and write your *suggestions*!
-
- Herzliche Grⁿ▀e
