Workbench crashes everytime I CLICK on a screenmode other than the native
ones in prefs.
I don't know if this is a bug, but here it goes:

workbench hardfile at 512mb, work: hardfile at 2048mb. And some directories
for Windows' drives etc. Here's what happens: I install WorkBench 3.1,
reboot, fresh clean install. I install Picasso96, reboot. I go into prefs,
screenmode and select any picasso screenmode and it gives me this error.
Why's that?
It doesn't matter if I have the rtg.library copied over to the emulated
Amiga or not, but I don't know if it's related. Probably isn't.. hmm.

edit: WinUAE822r9 causes this too. Maybe it's picasso96's fault. Hm, the
version i'm using is:

Short: Picasso96 system for Amiga graphics boards
Author: Tobias Abt and Alexander Kneer
Uploader: Tobias Abt <tabt at gmx.de>
Type: gfx/board
Version: 2.0

Possible causes could be, winuae configuration (particularly screen-size,
and allocated video ram), directx version, etc.
What version of windoze are you using, and some details of your system
specs?

[...]
Download AIAB (http://aiab.emuunlim.com) and install according to the
instructions on the site (http://aiab.emuunlim.com/installing/index.html).
That will give you a known-good P96 installation, so you'll know for sure
that if you still have that problem, it is down to your WinUAE settings, not
your P96/wb installation. And if the problem doesn't occur with the AIAB
setup, obviously you can either stick with that, or use it as a comparison
for troubleshooting.
