@Helgis and any others without a cdrw / dvdrw...

Use DiskImage, you don't have to use the iso from a disc to install it

@Helgis

->"...i don't have a burning program on my A1 ...


I just downloaded Update#4 and will be using FryingPan-Registered-V0.4b.

HowToISO in FP is easy:

1. Open a data/audio tracks and add it there; if file is read properly, it's
type should be set to ISO.
2. On the Write page, enable cooked data/audio tracks", disable "on-the-fly
images" and click Write.
3. You should get this great program!

Shouldn't you at least try out Pre4 before you start whine about next version?
It will come when it comes, I'm quite sure they will notify when it's released.

There's no excuse for this, the makecd demo will work fine for burning the update iso, there is a copy of it on the initial pre-release CD or get it from http://makecd.core.de/

@ JerryUk


I had this problem waaaay back.


Rogue Very quickly sorted it out.


Pm him about it mate. He's a Pucker bloke who will sort it straight off.

( Let him finish his beer first though)

And the 9100, which I believe uses the same chip?

Phooey. I had the download going but had to leave to get to work. Here I sit unable to do anything with the update until late tonight.

But I assume my Radeon 9100 still won't work with the 3d support yet. The rest will be nice though. What I'm really anxious to see is if the Pagestream OS4 beta will now run on my A1. I'm one of the unlucky few who can't get it going at all.

Severin!

I'm sold on FryingPan because of DVD support. I got an "AOpen 16xDVD±R/RW"
In less than a minute, OS4update4- 'install.iso' was on a FujiFilm Mini CD-R.

Still crashes on boot-up with my Radeon 9200 here. Sticking with the Voodoo 3 for the moment.

Yeah, the DVD support is a godsend, but...it does have a lot of stability problems with OS4...at least on my setup...

@Rob

This is because you need to set the softspites tooltype in the Radeon monitor information to yes! It will work then I assure you.

I'm installing now but...
With Radeon9250 (see my "Radeon 9250 problem" topic), I got problems...
I had to reinstall my old VooDoo3 3000 to can install it
I hope at installation ended my problems gone...

Tuxedo.

P.S. Ops... I see I'm not alone here...

Same problem here. I have a Radeon 9200 full, too. This is the same behaviour Update3 had on first boot after install. Unfortunately, this time it happens already while booting the CD, so I can't access the tooltypes and modify them. I will try some other solutions.
