I have an A2000 with GVP 68030 accelerator and 16 mb of RAM which came originally with a Video Toaster card which wasn't present when I got it on a garage sale 12 years ago. The way I know this was a Video Roster is because it already have the VT 4.1 Software already installed.

I managed to get hold of a Video Toaster 4000 which I put in the Video port after making sure all the jumpers were set for the A2000/A3000 location. However I am not sure if it is working properly. I get some volume error when I try to start the Software. Is there an easy way to find out if the card is working? It seems this card will not show in the autoconfig.

Do I have to reinstall the software in order to test if it works? Also the limitation of the VT4K on the A2000 is it because of the AGA/ CPU speed or because of the Zorro ii vs Zorro iii slot.

Thanks
