- Hi all,
-
- I've sorted out the problem with CVision screenmodes not being displayed
- on any lists, but now I have a memory problem. The CV64 card seems to
- take most of the Amiga's memory on an 800x600x24-bit screemode, leaving
- me with just about 30k left. I thought that a CyberVision screenmode
- would use the VRAM on board the CV64. I'm currently using an
- 800x600x8-bit screenmode, but this still takes up a sizeable chunk of
- the memory. Could this be a software problem or a hardware problem?
-
- I'm using:
-
- A4000/030
- 2Mb. chip
- 4Mb. fast
- Buster 11
- Vale Ecoscan 15" monitor (30kHz to 64kHz)
- Kickstart 3.0
- Workbench 3.1
- CyberGraphics release 2.15
-
- The jumper J1 on the CV64 is open (for fast Buster). Could the VRAM be
- faulty?
-
- I would appreciate any help as Harwoods does not seem to know what the
- problem is. I would like to try and get it working before I decide to
- return it as faulty.
