Hi, it's been awhile since I conffigured a PicassoII
in an A2000 also, but I seem to remember a jumper
that needed to be set and if this is an A2000 that's
maxed out  on memory, you have to remove 2 megs of
ram so the board can have an area to map it's memory
to. Hope this helps.

No problem. It's been awhile but I think the PicassoII
has to be able to map it's 2 megs into the first 8 megs.
It has something to do with the ZII/68000 if I remember
right. I also had to set the jumper for non-segmented
to get it to work right. When I moved it into an A4000
desktop it was no longer an issue (someone correct me
if I'm wrong here) because the A4000/68040 maps memory
differently then the A2000/680XX. I'm no expert either.
I hope you get it working. I had pretty good luck with
mine. I didn't stop using it because it quit working,
I upgraded to a PPC MKIII and CybervisionPPC and
still have the PicassoII just in case. >:)

Alright! Glad you got it working. The entire time I used
my Picasso I ran CybergraphX. You might want to give it
a try. Several time's I tried to switch to P96, never
could make the switch sucessfully, eventually gave up and
stuck with CGFX. For me it was more stable, but I may
not have been as patient with it as I should've been
because other people have good luck with it. I'm not
sure if you can still register it (for a long time they
had a web site for this) but am pretty sure you can
still purchase it through dealers. Every version worked
better then the software that came with my PicassoII.
