No picture when playing AGA demos on Access...

[olegil]

I dunno how many others have an Access, but it's an AGA Amiga clone with 2M chip, 8M fast and a 28 (or was it 25?) MHz 68030...

I'm usually running my workbench in dblpal or something, 64 colours (so AGA works just fine).

HOWEVER! :-)
When I play an AGA demo I've downloaded from the net I usually only see the first few effects and then the graphics stop showing and I get only music. This repeats if I retry, stops at excactly the same place. So I'm wondering if it's me or the Access that is being an idiot.

Yes, I know. I have chosen AmigaOne instead of Pegasos, making me an idiot in the eyes of people here, but when it comes to classic machines we should still be able to communicate, no? So lets rephrase and ask: is it only me, or is the Access an idiot as well?

Ok, so maybe it was a bit harsh, but I've gotten a few "I don't listen to red trolls" thrown at me from various "important" people lately, so...

Sorry.

Anyway, the Access has (at first glance) all the same chips as the A1200, which specific support chips do you mean?

The demos I've had bad luck with are the TBL (The Black Lotus?) ones from Aminet.
More or less gave up when I found out I have a CD full of downloads that won't play.

Also, is it my joystick, my cable, Team17 or the Access that makes down == right (or was it left)?
Killed me off a couple of times when playing superfrog, that...

Btw, AROS people have called me an idiot for sticking with the AmigaOne as well, so...
