      I got the standard Radeon X 1900 one. What can I say? My employer's cheap. ๐Ÿ’š Not complaining, though. โ— The 1900 has served me well so far.

      I think I managed to get the right driver off the ATI site. ๐Ÿ˜’ Would be nice to see this issue resolved. I'm dying to get back to Indigo-ing again. Using Maxwell has rekindled my appreciation of both Ono's and Whaat's work. ๐Ÿ˜„

      Maxwell's seems to be slightly better at picking up on very fine details, but it's SU plugin (while it has advantages) falls somewhat short compared to SkIndigo.

      H*ll, I just spent โ‚ฌ 319 on Vista Ultimate and โ‚ฌ 720 on RAM just to be able to enjoy Indigo and SkIndigo to the fullest extend. Ono, Whaat - you owe me. ๐Ÿ’š Nah - the app's worth it. ๐Ÿ˜„

        Last update. Ultimate 64 runs like a charm. Yesterday evening I installed 16 g of Kingston RAM. Never ever had a system that runs so smoothly.

        Tried a 13000 x 8000 render (two sets of lights, MultiLight on โ— ). Maxwell did not crash. Wonder how long it would take for a render like that to clear.

        Henceforth I shall be known as Lord Stinkie of RAM. ๐Ÿ˜‰

            I think thats a program called parallels.

            Link Preview Image
            Application and Desktop Delivery | Parallels RAS

            Download Parallels to run Windows on Mac, Chrome, gain access to virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) with DaaS, & Toolbox to secure private files, & more.

            favicon

            (www.parallels.com)

            Its an emulation program that runs different OSs on a mac OS by providing 'virtual hardware' for the OS to run on.

              I don't use Parallels, but from the info I read on the web , it is pretty fast on the 'usual' software.
              The only thing that isn't supported to the fullest is the GPU graphical card power.

              So any software that depends a lot on the graphical card (like Sketchup) will have a slow down.

              For applications as Office etc... it should work fine.
