I have a question for anyone who purchased the Diamond Speedstar24x card
package which included a copy of Dr. Halo Desktop Imager software. I am
having a problem with the software in that after a load an image, I can't
do any processing or filtering. 

When I select "filter" from the menu, all of the options are unavailable ("greyed
out"). I don't get it, is this "crippleware" or what. Right now the only thing its 
good for is to view and convert existing files to other formats.

Has anyone else been able to get the thing to work? 


Thanks

	I have no problem with the program that came with Speedstar24x, what
option is availble depends on the type of images (e.g. 24 bits, bitmap etc.),
so try some other images.

You need to convert the images to true color (24 bit) first.  (Under
Image, Convert To...).
