I very much doubt I'll get time - after sorting out my PC and WinXP, I've found I'm having problems with my QXL.WIN CD backups, I put them on cheap CDRs and suddenyl I can't restore them. They won't read on this PC, I'll try them at work tomorrow, as I've found some CDs will work on that PC where they won't on this one.
Like the old QL trick I suppose. DD or HD disks won't read? Try them on Miracle ED drives, 90% readable on there! I've kept the code you sent me though, if I do get time I will. What I may do is add it to display_cde but with a new extension name to give people the options of what level of test they want. -- Dilwyn Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rich Mellor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 07, 2004 6:18 PM Subject: Re: Re: [ql-users] Detecting GD2 > On Tue, 7 Dec 2004 14:22:51 +0000, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > >> If, for example, I had Aurora set up to use only QL colour, I would NOT > >> want any job to > >> try and set it to a different colour mode.!!! > >> > >> Wolfgang > > Spoilsport ;-) > > > > I think I misunderstood what Rich was trying to achieve here. > > > > The test for GD2 does work in the sense in which it was intended.
