Lemmings never did fill the screen on PAL systems... it left the lower 56 lines blank. Same for quite a few games, like Weird Dreams for example.


Its not too much of a problem, I guess I am just used to slightly bigger sprites.

It will add to the challenge!

Another quick question... if anyone is still here..

If I get one of the USB cards to put in the amiga, is it something that is external or is it fitted? Could I use a External HD with it?

Note, though, that I don't think you can boot from a USB hard disk (unless you install kickstart modules with Blizzkick, which requires an accelerator card like the Blizzard 1260 or 1230). It also would be quite a lot slower than fitting a hard disk to the internal IDE port.


To be fair I am just thinking as a backup for when I get an Internal HD for it.

Plus I will be able to use a usb mouse.

Fair enough...
