I know from previous experience that 8.0 works. Upgrading it to 8.1 breaks it in the same way that 8.1 is broken from the off.

I have never used Enforcer before. Just downloaded it, and when I run it in a shell window I get a message saying "Enforcer is on the job", but then things start to hang (even Workbench) :-?

Well upgrading from 8.0 to 8.1 doesn't work so I have no reason to think that 7.x to 8.0 to 8.1 would work, but I will try it.

I've just had a thought. Maybe my Mac ROM is from a pre-060 or even pre-040 machine. Could this be why it doesn't work properly?

Ken Lester is using one from a LC/Performa 575, but he's using UAE so it's effectively an 040. I wonder if it would work on a real Amiga with an 060?

Just tried with a Performa 575 ROM as per Ken's details but the same thing happened. This must be an 060 thing. I did try turning of caches as detailed in the Shapeshifter documentation but this made no difference. Is there any way to fully degrade the 060 to an 040 temporarily? If not then I suppose I *could* put the original 030 back in my A4000 just to prove once and for all whether it's the CPU which is causing the problem.

Start your own thread? :roll: Sorry but it's really annoying when a thread gets sidetracked with a different problem and the problem the thread was supposed to be about never gets solved.

Yes I have the following:

PrepareEmul
Setpatch NOROMUPDATE
VisualPrefs

and a few others, nothing too strange. However the same thing happened in a clean 3.1 install with no patches except PrepareEmul, and no software installed except CyberGraphX latest version.

I doubt there is a significant difference between 8.0 and 8.1. But yes it is frustrating and it has become personal now :lol:

Would ShapeShifter run 8.1 on an 030? If so I think I'll try putting my A4000's original 030 back in just to prove once and for all whether it's the CPU.

Had a look at that link and it made absolutely no sense to me. If anyone near Milton Keynes, England has a CS 040 board and want to help me get to the bottom of this, I'll make you a cuppa if you come round and let me test with your 040 :-)

Flashlab is using P96 and he has the same problem, so I don't think it's CGX. I tried Fusion but I can't get the emulation to run. I don't have Cyberpatcher or Oxypatcher installed. I did try Basilisk II but I had the same problem.
