Hi again Steve
Do you absolutely need the figure/float "HERE" (\begin{figure}[H])?
If not, the starred version works, but places it outside of the multicols, most likely on the next page. It seems that this would be the solution I would use, though others may have another (more elegant) solution?
\usepackage{pstricks-add} % for \psLoop
\begin{document}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\psLoop{100}{Testing }
Figure \vref{fig1}
\begin{figure*}
\begin{center}
\fbox{\textbf{Hello!}}
\end{center}
\caption{Testing as well} \label{fig1}
\end{figure*}
\psLoop{100}{Lorem ipsum }
\end{multicols}
\end{document}
