- I believe that you will find that this is due to the version you are running.
-
- It should be version 1.22 or later in order to correctly work with RISC OS 3.10.
-
- I can't remember where I read this (it could even be the RISC OS 3.10 release notes),
- but it works fine for a friend of mine on his A310 and he has ver. 1.22.
-
- I believe that the support disk has a patch for earlier versions oF RISC iX, but that
- Acorn do not guarantee that it will work.
-
- If in doubt, get a newer version of RISC iX.
-
- If in the meantime, I remember where I read it, I'll post some details.
-
- Cheers,
