      Unable to Load and Initialize GPI

Product: Video Toaster

Platforms: 2000 3000 3000T 4000 4000T

Problem: When the Toaster software is run, the error message "Unable to load and initialize GPI" occurs.

1. There is a conflict with the IBM Bridgeboard in your machine. Be sure that the Bridgeboard is not active when the Toaster is running, or try changing the Bridgeboard configuration so as not to interfere with Toaster operations.

2. Mouse accelerator is running in background. You must deactivate it when running the Toaster.

3. Screen blanker is running in background. Same solution as previous.

4. Conflict with ParNet software. Same solution as previous.

5. Joystick/serial/parallel port controller chips are faulty. Refer to service center for diagnostics and repair.
