Piccolo SD64 not working on Micronik busboard v4.02
Hi,
I'm struggeling with my Piccolo SD64 2Mb graphics card for weeks now. Problem is I get graphics corruptions when the Piccolo outputs the screen. No images or text can be seen and the mousepointer is a striped block. On the picasso test screen you can see the different colour blocks and some patterns. I tried a lot of different settings in ENV and Tooltypes in Picasso96 and that doesn't help. On a different forum someone suggested the video ram may be broken. How can you make sure it's the ram? Or is the busboard to blame? |

Only thing to find out is to do some testing
 - Piccolo in A2000 - other ZII gfx card in the busboard - Piccolo in other busboard However, I don´t think you can test the video ram on it´s own .... maybe just replace it and see what happens, not sure which rams the Piccolo got .... |

If you don´t have any chance, you may contact me so I can test the Piccolo, but you must pay shipping to germany in that case ....
Or you may contact the commodore scene in the netherlands, wasn´t there a meeting just some weeks ago ? they could help for sure

Would CGX V3 work also for testing? I don't feel like spending money on a piece of software when my card is to blame!

I just installed CGX V3 but I can't test a screenmode with it. The Mode editor just says that it's unable to open a screen.
Also the ScreenMode program in Prefs only shows the AGA modes... |

Yep OS3.9 with BB2
Edit: Did some research and found this: http://www.gregdonner.org/os39faq/compatibility.html#16 Guess that explains By the way I just tried the piccolo drivers on amiga.resource.cx and they give the same kind of corruption as picasso96... Last edited by Flashlab; 29 September 2005 at 22:12. |

Any users from Holland here that will let me test my Piccolo in their Amiga?
I had a disappointing visit to an Amiga meeting where nobody was willing to help... Your help would be greatly appreciated! |
