You can only use it after >setcpu fastrom. But be careful. First, if you're using SetCPU V1.5, you can get it to trick the keyboard scanning routines by specifying "SetCPU FASTROM KEYPATCH 10" to start with, and changing the "10" as necessary; larger numbers increase the patch delay, use the smallest number that works. This patch was supposed to work for 1.3 and 1.2, but, well, it's broken under 1.2. In any case, if you're using SetCPU V1.5, you'll also find that some of the "KeyHack" programs that fixed your problem with the SetCPU V1.4 FASTROM don't fix it under SetCPU V1.5. That's because the ROM image is write protected at both physical and logical locations with SetCPU V1.5, but only at the logical ROM address with SetCPU V1.4. The original KeyHack program written by Jez San snoops out the physical ROM images and modifies it; that doesn't work when that image is write protected. >Chris Brand - wizard@sosaria.imp.com -- Dave Haynie Commodore-Amiga (Amiga 3000) "The Crew That Never Rests" {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: hazy BIX: hazy "I have been given the freedom to do as I see fit" -REM
