Hi,
Can anyone test this code for a boot file to switch colour mode from QPC2 ?
QPC2 is started in QL Colours 800x600 full screen window.
The boot file listing is to change it over to High Colour, to then run a programme in that mode.
On my system it messes up the screen ... :-( ... so be warned before you try it out.
I tried it on my system - 800x600 in both windows mode and full screen mode.
No problems I get the completely black screen I expect and can type normally.
Suggest you try it in Windows Mode as well
I glad the code is working for you, and for your assistance in establishing it.
Is there anything else that you set on your system that I could have omitted ?
No... I wonder if it is linked to your graphics drivers, for example I might have a later version of DirectX (I have v9.0c). Suggest you run Windows Update and check for optional downloads as well.
That could be a thought ...
If I remember when I installed DirectX it was at v8 ?
Do you have a 'direct' address where it is available from on the M$ site ?
