You can use the USE selection rather than the SAVE selection in preferences. I don't know if this will work, but I had this same problem with version 1.0 - and that's the solution. ---Unfortunately, I've just added 4Meg to my 3000 and now neither version of Omega (1.0 and 1.5) will run at all - under 1.3 or 2.0. They show the intro screen then crash the machine. None of my other programs have any problems - including NetHack - which is just about as large. I've tested the memory (the old write-pattern- read-back test) and can find no problems. John -- jgh1@unix.cis.pitt.edu Who Me? I didn't say anything.
