I am having some problems with displaying Dynamic Hires images using the viewer from NewTek on my A3000. Now I had heard that there was some sort of timing problem or something like that w.r.t. DHires and the 3000, BUT I know someone with an A3000 with the exact same hardware configuration as I have (2 Megs Chip, 4 Megs Fast, HD) and his machine displays them flawlessly. I think my problem may be hardware. Here is my reasoning. When I try to display one of these images, I get the screen from NewTek as the display program loads, then the image is loaded. When the image is displayed, each scanline is 'dynamic' in nature (no pun intended). It is not any recognizable part of the image and it 'flickers' as a function of time. AND (this is where I think the hardware problem is implied) the drive lights of my two floppy drives begin to blink on and off in time to the flicker of the screen (only if there is a disk in them). What gives????? Any hardware types have suggestions about this?? Thanks, Scott Sutherland
