Aaron, it might not be the 2MB RAM cards that are faulty, but rather the channel cards. Peter W. said the channel cards should be be revved to 1.9A or 2.3A work with the WaveSuper. The RAM cards should be best be revved to 4.5 to work with WaveSuper here's an old e-mail from Pete

I think (though I could be wrong) that the VGA cards where designed for the MFX software. A couple of the "extra" MDR screens in 9.34 make extensive use of colour, and look very nice.

Ah, thanks. I'll only go this route should my current original monitor fail... Why did they do a colour VGA card if there is no colour (apart from the RED Fairlight logo during disc access)? Because colour monitors were more available, maybe?? Cheers, Peter -----Original Message-

yes, I heard this disappeared in 9.34 (at least on monochrome VDU graphics) something to do with the logo being changed to color (red ?) for the then-new color graphics option. my first 9.34 CMI arrives next week, so I'll have a look. --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "Peter

Did anyone else's "FAIRLIGHT" logo disappeared after they had it upgraded to a 9.34 spec machine? You know, the one that flickers in the top left corner of the screen when something is loading... Mine did, although I do recall seeing it there once since the upgrade, but only brie
