Default Something is wrong..
I cant get my WinUAE setup (WB 3.1) to work under Win2003

It just minimizes to the desktop after showing a purple dotted screen, sometimes you see the desktop beifly. I keep clicking the taks bar icon and it keeps minimizing. This is a brand new 1.2 athlon and should be powerful enough to run it. any ideas?

Sounds exactly like a problem I had with PC games years ago.

There was something wrong with the graphics drivers for the gfx card. Either that or it was a crap card, I can't remember :-)
