VistaPro on expanded/RTG systems

This is good information to know.
Question though: Couldn't you have used "newmode" and just saved the preset to never promote that screen?

Unfortunately it's not a simple matter of what modes/monitors are available to the system. I've got NTSC, PAL, the Double modes, etc. all in Devs:Monitors, but VistaPro just chokes if the Workbench isn't actually set to one of those modes.

Oh I see.  It's checking what WB is set to and it wants to copy that. I am surprised forcing it via new mode to an appropriate screen mode didn't work,  but I guess it's just one of those oddities.
