There is a PD program called PCVIEW that views IFF's like what Deluxe Paint III
can show.  I have used this for my IFF's and HAMVGA for my ham pics without a 
problem - except if a ham is bigger, not all of it can be seen on a VGA screen.

Also I have heard that a PC program that you would have to pay $ for is called,
"Hijack" or simular.  I believe this program will convert alot of Amiga stuff to
view on a PC.

You might try a PD screen capture program when you use PCVIEW or HAMVGA...
