- I recently upgraded my '030 A1200 with 16 megs FAST. I made a
- Toolmanager button for Pinball Illusions on my hard drive. When I run
- PBI, the game runs all the way up until I want to play a particular
- table, and then the game stops, saying there's not enough free
- memory. I'm almost sure this is because despite the gobs of fast mem
- I have available, PBI wants a lot of chip mem, which seems half
- depleted (down to 1 meg), by the time my OpusWB comes up.
-
- Does anyone know if there's a way to force all my applications to use
- fast mem on my WB? I would assume that some things need to steal chip
- mem, but I'm not sure what they'd be. If it makes a difference, I'm
- running a 256 color Super72 Hi-res desktop.
-
- Can anyone give advice here?
-
- Thanks,
- Joe
