Hi all,
Just a quick note to introduce myself really. I've been an Amiga person for many years starting with my first A500 (that pack with Shadow of the Beast 2 in it) when I was but a mere child. I was immediately hooked. Later on, via an A500+, I graduated to an A1200 with (brace yourself) a HUGE 80mb hard drive! WOW! (How could I EVER need more? :-D). Made Monkey Island 2's 11 floppies much more palatable :-)
Years later and I decided to treat it for it's faithful service with an Eyetech tower kit. I also adorned it with a flicker fixer, proper IDE and a lovely A4000 keyboard. Thing is, the keyboard adaptor refuses to do Ctrl-Amiga-Amiga without it hanging. Ungrateful swine.
If any of your gurus can meditate on this and find a solution I'd be very grateful as this problem has forced me to relegate my trusty Amiga to the loft! :-o (The original A1200 keyboard works and it boots from power-on fine. Eyetech have also had it back and could find no problems)
Right, I'm off now to scour the forums to see if my questions about OS4.0 are answered already before I post them again and look like a fool on my first day :-)
See you around!

Welcome to A.Org!
11 floppies for a game... terrible! I wonder if it supported all three external drives?! :-)

It does support all 4 drives as it is a normal OS-call based game. :)

Welcome!
:-D
