Video Picasso96 winUAE
« on: November 03, 2011, 02:25:58 PM »
I started my winUAE thread here (different issue now):
http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=59641

And then relaized there was a software section...anyways, to make a long story Short, I have AmigaOS3.9 running in WinUAE and all seems well EXCEPT..I have crappy video resolution.  As a result, I have tried to install the Picasso96 video driver based on this tutorial:
http://elite79.tripod.com/os39uae/

Anyways, I follow the instructions, the install seems to go fine BUT, I never get the resolutions that the author shows in his screenshot, the install does not seem to take effect.  Any suggestions, I am using a WAY newer version of WinUAE than the author, so this could bepart of the problem.  As well, I did indeed do some reading, and some suggest that one needs to add the RTG graphics card feature with at Least 2MB of ram, ALAS, all of the RTG options are greyed out, even when my AmigaOS WinUAE machine is not booted, so any suggestions with this as well would be greatly appreciated.  

And since, I'm on a roll, I have one last question...performace...I'm not sure my WinUAE performance is up to par...I am running WinUAE on a intel Core2 with 4GB of ram...and to me it seems like my winUAE AmigaOS3.9 machine *SHOULD* be faster..however, keep in mind I haven't used a real Amiga since the late 80's, and my preception of *PERFORMANCE* could be REALLY distorted...any performance tweek suggestions would be greatly appreciated as well none the less ;)

Thanks in advance.

Never mind I dug a little deeper.  Turn of 24 bit addressing, and then turn up the RTG settings, works like a charm ;)

Hey Guys!!!  Thanks for all your help to date, did something fun:

1. Installed WinPCap
2. Went to Genesis, Started GEN Pref Wizard, specified SANA II device as, uaenet.device, then configured a seperate IP for the WINAUE amiga machine
3.  I'm on the internet and the network as a Virtual Device, seperate from my windows machine..yay.

What boing bags do I need installed to run Orign web browser...someone also suggested this, in a previous post here (It says there is a special boing bad to run OWB):

I'm new is it an updated browser?
AWeb APL



Thanks
