I have been attempting to get A-Squared's LIVE! 2000 board to work on my 3000 to no avail. I tried the board in two different slots (not the video slot, it doesn't go there) and got no results. When I attempt to access the board through Invision under 2.0 the system crashes and reboots. Under 1.3 I get a system error request "LIVE! BOARD NOT INSTALLED". I took the board out and put it in a 2000 and it works fine. The Invision software does appear to be running normally on the 3000. I contacted A-Squared and they said they hadn't tried it but they said Commodore has assured all developers that any board that works in a 2000 WILL work in the 3000. Then they told me to contact Commodore if I am having a problem. I tried to contact the Commodore Technical Divsion all day Thursday and Friday, all I got was either repeated busy signals or the phone would ring for 5 minutes and nobody would pick it up. However I have contacted Commodore about problems with a genlock and some software problems on the 3000 and everytime I call all they tell me is that they can't be responsible for 3rd party hardware or software and that I have to contact that company directly. So I expect if I ever do get through to Commodore that is the story I will hear once again. Does anyone have any suggestions about the LIVE! board. Or do you think I am just on a holding pattern until someone or other does something about it? ============================================================================== \ / \ \ / / Sean Schur \ \ / / \ \/ / USENET: schur@isi.edu \ /a\mpyr/ Compuserve: 70731,1102 \/ \ / ideo Plink: OSS259 \/ ==============================================================================
