I have an Amiga 500 w/3M RAM, and a 52M SUPRA 500XP HD. My AGNUS is marked MOS 8370 2587 23. Now, it is my understanding that this is the normal 512K AGNUS chip, but when I run SYSINFO (I have V1.98), it totally freaks on AGNUS type and prints a line of what look like 'y's with an umlaut all the way across the screen, and occaisonally it tells me that I have an ECS 8373 Denise, although I know mine to be an 8362. Does anybody have any idea what causes this? All the rest of the info displayed is correct... madman@lakes.UUCP (MadMan) Twin_Lakes Engineering gatech!dogwood!lakes!madman

There is a slight bug with disabling of interrupts too, if you play a module with Module Master then run SysInfo, SysInfo doesn't suspend Mod Master and in effect it tells me my 2000 is running 1/3 the speed of a A500. -- ======================================================================= Matt Crowd cpmwc@marlin.jcu.edu.au | "Operator, give me | the number for 911" Resident Computer Science FTP Mutant | - Homer Simpson

I wouldn't believe this program. When benchmarking my A500 it tells me it runs *0* (null, nothing,...) times as fast as the other reference systems. Do I really have to add that this is uttermost b*ll ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ives Aerts | IBM definition SY-34378 GUTEST8@BLEKUL11.BITNET | A signature consists of sequences of gutest8@cc1.kuleuven.ac.be | non-blank characters separated by blanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
