General chat about Amiga topics / Re: A600 + Furia + 3.9 = Crash

3.2.2 and 3.2.2.1 are less bloated than 3.9. 3.2 also incorporated the features of 3.9 and some others built in like mounting adf files by double clicking etc.. 
If all is well with Hyperion, then 🤞🏻Amiga OS 3.3 will be released (Currently being BETA tested).

To be fair and balanced here 😉

Most of the new products that come out fall under the same issues regarding updates on what works and what doesn’t. Take the BFG9060 as another example. Bought one of these only to find it didn’t play nice with SCSI.
Ask on forums like this one and the answer is “Didn’t you know about that? It’s well documented!”.
If it weren't for forums like this one, with threads on this, then you would be scratching your heads.

I'm lucky that my friend has a programmer, but I am wondering if I am even going to bother. Now I have 3.9 working, do I really need 3.2.2? Will it bring anything more to the table? Probably not.

Thank you

A big thank for this little nugget of advice, you've saved me a morning of stress! Go out and buy yourself a sweetie! (I recommend curly whirly or a toffee crisp)  ;D

The A600 is finally booting! Since the last LAG meeting, I've been trying to get 3.2 installed, then finally gave up as it just would not install properly. I later read that the Furia cards have issues with WB 3.2 and I might need to firmware update the card ugh I'm not going to say just how many days I wasted trying to get it working (too many).
 
I decided to go back to an OS I used to use regularly on my A3000, 3.9. While I do have a squirrel scsi, I'll be buggered if I know where it's gone, probably scurried off collecting nuts or old AF cover disks lol So I thought, why not use WinUAE? I learned the hard way not to setup a hard drive using an emulator, after I spent an evening setting up a CF card, installing 3.1, only to insert it in the Amiga and it report that it couldn't find "HDUAE.device". So last weekend, I set the drive up on a REAL Amiga and then did all the software install, tweaking etc in WinUAE. I thought I was being pretty slick, as it was all going off without a single issue. Until this morning when I installed the CF back in the A600 and it essentially gave me the two fingers  ;D

Again thank you! I'm planning on writing about this on the club website, certainly going to make a mention about Furia cards and rom patches.

Unfortunately the Furia in the A600 is a well know PITA! Had a couple, one of them I decided was enough and sold it on. It also depends on which revision you buy and then also the firmware you use on the card. Talking of firmware, this ain’t easy to program. If you want more details on this, have a look at Chris Edwards YouTube channel… Not for the feint hearted!

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Re: CyberstormPPC max temperature

Yes, the problem is not the CPU, it's the temperature of the board which can cause the desoldering of the CPU.

The best thing in my opinion is prevention is better than cure. If you can, try heatsinks on any of the chips you see in the board, that’s if you have room for them.

Reduced intensity of Captcha, is that better.

Not sure why your being asked for it when sending PM. There is no option for this.

Don’t recall seeing it when using Safari. Could be a Browser thing?

All,

Just been having conversations with Jens over at Individual Computers.

The message I have been given, is that all U.K resellers have been contacted in regards to supplying and reselling Icomp products.

I believe Amigakit also have the option to resell Icomp products here in the U.K. They were before….

Individual Computers also still have their shop open. So if you are elsewhere in the world or you need to do a price comparison. That choice is there.

Happy shopping 👍🏻
