Hi,
I have added an Apollo 1240 card to my A1200.
And then tried same old games.
Wing commander works fine, but the rest...
Are there any solutions for this, patches etc..?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Have you tried using
WHDLoad?
You download the main package and then you can download individual HD installers for tons of old games, and they often apply patches to get the games working okay on faster hardware like your '040.

You need to put the installer program in your C: directory...it's in the Install Workbench disk.

The Installer from 3.1 is a bit outdated and a lot of WHDLoad installs use features present only in newer versions of Installer. If the version on your 3.1 disks doesn't work, I think there's a newer one on Aminet.
