As I'm a bit short on chipram, I thought I'd try installing FBlit from Aminet. The install instructions appear easy enough but I couldn't get it working. Whenever my 1200 fired up it would complain that FBlit was not executable? After checking the infomation on C:\FBlit it was indeed not executable. If I set it to executable it just corrupted my desktop and then became unstable?
Anyone got any ideas?
:-D

How many colors are you setting your screen mode to? I think more than 32 or 64 and FBlit will give you trouble.

I think I might be running at 128 colours. What about the executable status of the file though, that bit is very strange?

I've had that non-executable issue in the past, making it executable should be all you need.
I'd give it a shot at 32 colors, that seems to work for me.

Ok I'll give that a go :idea:

@NovaCoder: FBlit is delicate to handle. Some options not set right, and it might result in your computers symptoms.
Try using FBlitGUI and simultaneously RTFM. ;-)
