Title: Help! Prograb image corrupted..
Post by: lurkist on March 04, 2003, 10:44:57 AM

All I get from Prograb at the moment is a corrupted image (preview and final).  I am telling myself it`s the power supply I`m using (9v as requested, but 1.6 milliamps instead of the required 0.7) or it could be the link cable (25 pin m-f, an unusual setup for a parallel lead - in fact it was advertised as a serial extension cable) but I`m unconvinced.  What do you guys think?  Are these minor things incapable of giving me the results I want?
Cheers.

Have you tried a several times? If you every time get the same result, then your prograb is broken. I too had the same problem and I can't get it fixed or a new one.

Well did it work properly at some point? At what point did it stop working? At the point in which it stopped working had you changed some settings, cables, psu?

@amiga1260
I thought it might interest you to know that your ProGrab may not be dead!  I bought a cheap mulitway adapter yesterday which runs at 300 milliamps, and now mine works perfectly!
