- Try this>
- Unhook the genlock and turn on the 1200. In your ScreenMode
- Control Panel, switch to a non-AGA screen, like 640x400 64 colors
- Hires Interlaced. I have a SuperGen hooked up to my A4000 with DCTV
- but SuperGen does not work with AGA modes, so make sure your workbench
- or any bootpics, etc. are not in AGA mode when you hook up the genlock.

- Hope this helps.
