I have just watched the whole demo right through until the "Handle:" vertical scroller so it works fine with this WinUAE, so there could be a few things wrong:

1. Your Packard Bell is REALLY shit
2. You need another config (See attachment)
3. Your ADF is dodgy (Ask for my working version)

Just incase you don't believe I have watched it all, here is the final pic after the counter reaches zero

Yep Definitely option 1 Ian

It ran right though this time but it maybe because I was in Window mode.

Anyway my ATI card keeps going out of sync with my monitor. This happens during bootup of my PC.

Well at least my Sound Card works right now after it blew.

I will regret saying that.

Paul, try changing that config I uploaded to 800x600 full screen and turn off centring vertically and horizontally, if your GFX card can do it in a window it shouldn't have a problem with it in full-screen mode

BTW I'm no longer afflicted by the disease known only as owning a Packard Bell

[Ian]

I have found something really strange with this release, it' keeps on re-inserting disks after I have ejected them

For instance, I load a game/demo and eject the disk, reset WinUAE and low and behold the game/demo starts loading again

Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me again?

The bug is a stupid bug and doesn't affect me too much, it's just bloody annoying.

[Paul]

Yes I noticed this, but blamed my Packard Bell instead.

When I insert a disk the hard disk boots instead.

When I inserted another disk and reboot to run something else sometimes I find it boot the previous disk.

Note: The Release 3 version floating around is NOT official, and has known bugs in the floppy and CD-ROM code.

Don't always think that, Ian. If I recall from before, all the various Quake 3 test releases had Installshield-like installers.

But yeah... that leaves one question. Why produce an installshield thingy for a non-public and improper release?
