English Amiga Board - View Single Post

Ever single Laptop I have installed ICAROS on gives me the exact same problem. I cannot set the AMIBRIDGE resolution. After integrating AF, when given the option to match screenmodes, the screen just goes grey and sits there forever. I reboot and go to the AMIBRIDGE menu below, far left and select Screenmode. Shortly after, grey screen.

Is there A trick to this I'm missing do I just have 7 incompatible laptops?

EDIT:
I think I may have discovered the issue on this particular laptop after doing some extensive google searches and filling in the blanks AND RTFM'ing.
I loaded AMIBRIDGE presets and used Windowed - The Amiga workbench started up fine. I look at the screenmodes and I can match the resolution of Icaros but not the screen depth.

In workbench, I'm only presented with 32 bit screen depths, in Icaros Desktop Prefs screenmode, I'm only able to set Icaros to 16 or 24 bit.

So there is no way I can match these settings.

So there is no way I can run workbench in full screen.

I'm guessing.
