Title: Picasso IV woes
Post by: AlphaC on September 12, 2013, 04:40:36 PM

Hi

I have this PIV that seems to work perfectly if you don't mind the colors that are all wrong.

I'll include a pic http://sdrv.ms/1emHqf5 (http://sdrv.ms/1emHqf5)

Anyone with any idea what could cause this strange behavior :confused:

check the manual, have you set the correct jumpers on the card?

the PicassoIV has built in flickerfixer, so the color you getting may be because you not have the correct jumper setting.

You also need to configure the card in workbench using picasso software.

picasso software
http://amiga.resource.cx/install/PicassoIV.dms

flash update.

As the wrong colours are on a native screen the flifi misbehaves. Perhaps PicassoModeTNG is needed to tweak the settings.

Hi

I have read the manual and checked for correct jumper settings. The firmware is 7.4 but it won't let me reflash.
