DO NOT USE DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time it is unfortunately not possible to white list users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Hehe, I was just discovering that myself the other night, right after playing with the colour modes. The mono picture looks gorgeous, but it's not in the right place. I haven't get taken the time to fiddle with all knobs, but I'm sure I can improve it somewhat.

What is it with these original boards packing in all the time :cussing: :cussing:

The STE I'm using to test the simms seems to have iffy sockets. So thought I would swap it for my other test machine, which was working fine last week as I was testing some ROMs out for my store (and put back on the shelf working) . connected it up and totally white screen does not boot. :headbang:

I just don't have these problems at all with H4. Use it, go back a week later and it still working fine. So looks like I will have to do yet another project in creating a H4 simm adapter board to let me test simms out in the future, as I just don't have time to keep screwing around trying to figure out why these machines keep on dying all the time :cussing:

You can get a 72pin simm to 4 x 30 pin simm adaptor, just can't remember where from.
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
