Could someone please assist me with this problem.
I purchased Videoscape 3D V2 secondhand, and am having trouble with it. At
least, it doesn't display when I expect it to.
If I go through the process of loading a picture file from the distribution,
and then try to display it, the screen blanks out, and everything stops. One
of the keypad keys will return me to the main menu. I'm really not sure if
I'm doing something wrong eg does the view need to be lit by a light source ?
1. Someone loaned me Version 1, which worked as I expected.
2. I've tried running from floppy and hard drive (love that A590) with
identical results (not surprising). The rest of the system is a rev 5 A500
with 1.3 ROM, and 1084 monitor.
3. I bought it with the shrink wrap broken. The master disk was corrupted,
but I copied over it from another master someone loaned me - thinks - Is there
a copy protection mechanism ?
Any help/suggestions will be appreciated.
