I have posted this message on AppleTech, as well as on GEnie
I have come across a rather infuriating conflict between the Transwarp IIe
and Publish It! 3.0 with neither AE or Timeworks have been able to answer.
This is my configuration of my IIe
Aux: Super Expander card with 1 meg memory (this is a knockoff of the
original
AE Ramworks card)
1 PKASO-U card configured as an Epson APL interface.
2 SMT Envoy Serial Card
3 Transwarp IIe
4 AppleMouse Card
5 Universal Disk Controller
6 Apple 5.25 disk controller
7 Sider D2 HD Controller
I also have a No-Slot Clock installed under ROM EF and is mapped to slot 3.
I
have also applied the Apricot patch (aka SmartWatch) to ProDOS 1.9. When I
power up, the Transwarp is activated and everything is hunky-dory...
UNTIL I GO INTO PUBLISH IT! I only get as far as the title screen in
Publish It! and immediately get bombed into the monitor. They only way I
can run Publish It! is to do the three finger salute, get into BASIC, do a
POKE 49268,3 to disable the Transwarp (which immediately locks up the
machine), then do another 3 finger salute back into my shell, then into
Publish It! DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHY THIS HARDWARE/SOFTWARE
COMBINATION IS INCOMPATIBLE? I just get the standard answer from Timeworks
(Duh!) and AE has yet to respond to the message I left on their bulletin
board (I abolutely REFUSE to pay anyone $1.50/minute for support, 900
number or otherwise! I've worked support myself for more years than I care
to remember and have always felt that support was an integral part (albeit
a money-losing one) of doing business. I guess this is what happens when
the f****** (insert your favorite f-word here) bean-counters take over...
