I can't figure out >what the problem is. [...] It's CloseView, in your System.Setup folder. There are quite a few programs it doesn't get along with. (Even if you're not *using* CloseView, having it installed causes problems. You have to remove it, or mark it Inactive in the Icon Info window.) CloseView causes the conceptual super-hires screen to be in bank 1 instead of bank $E1, so there are problems when the application assumes the screen is always in bank $E1. (It's easy to do it right, but a lot of applications don't bother. Details in Apple IIgs Technical Note #91, The Wonders of Universal Access.) -- David A.
