- I have 4000/040 18MB with EMPLANT deluxe and CV64 4MB. I have not
- encountered this problem. I have run both the 5.5 emplant software as
- well as the new Emplant Mac Pro 1.0. I also have 3.1 in rom and Commodore
- 1960 monitor. THe video is passed through like it's supposed to. Hope
- you can figure out your problem. Try eliminating the commmodities to see
- if there is a conflict.
