I am having some difficulties with my A2000/Bridgeboard system that I'd very much appreciate some helpful advice on. I have a hard disk attached to the IBM bridge card, with an Amiga partition for use as JH0. After activating "PCMono" via the Workbench, the Amiga seems to loose its ability to access its partition (JH0:) on the bridge's hard disk; any CLI or Workbench control input which requires access to JH0: "hangs". This lockup doesn't always happen immediately after opening the IBM window, but does happen within a very few IBM command executions. The IBM window still works, even after the Amiga windows are hung up. Is this a common problem? Have I done something stupid? Pre-gratefully, Brian Rhodefer

I never lost my JH0: partion when I started the PCWindow program (IE: PCMono or PCColor). So I think you may have done something wrong because that is not a common problem. -- Dan Schein uucp: {ihnp4|allegra|burdvax|rutgers}!cbmvax!schein Commodore AMIGA Bix: dschein Plink: Dan*CATS 1200 Wilson Drive phone: (215) 431-9100 ext. 9542 West Chester PA 19380 +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ All spelling mistakes are a result of my efforts to avoid education :-) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ I help Commodore by supporting the AMIGA.
