Hello everybody !!!
First of all I would like to apologize for double-posting this topic but I'm not sure where I should have posted it in the beginning , so I posted it both here and in the expansion etc topics. Now , back to my questions:
10 years ago, I used to own an Amiga 500. Now I decided to go back to those good ol' days, so I bought from e-bay an excellent Amiga 1200 (with 3.0 roms) and after cleaning it and generally restoring it to a "like new" condition , I decided to expand it a little bit.
Problem is , that 10 years ago when I had the A500, I only used it for games and I don't know anything about anything else !!!
I want to buy and install a HD ,partition it , install the workbench 3.0 (which I have but I'mm not sure it works , haven't checked it yet) , install some ol' favorite games and then perhaps use sth to connect it to my EIZO T550 17" monitor (where my PC is also connected).
What I need from you guys is :
Tell me what I need to buy for the above mentioned (which 2.5" HD? which cable for it etc)?
Because I have no experience with the Amiga OS it would be great to have a step-by-step instructions note or sth.
Also , I read in another FAQs that I also need a "Commodore install disk". What is this and where can I find it?
Finally , if you have any suggestions for all the things I need to buy (HD,Cables,Vga box or whatever I need to connect my Amiga to the PC monitor without flickering etc) PLEASE let me know (please don't tell me to search the Ebay , I'm already doing that, but I would like to buy new hardware if this is possible)!!!!
That's all and sorry for the long post....
Thanks everybody !!!
P.S. "It's Aliiive !!! It's Aliiive !!!"
