Title: A600 HD - Memory Problem! - Please Help
Post by: Daniele on March 09, 2008, 05:56:21 PM

Hi Guys,

I have just formatted my A600 HD but the problem os that I do have only 628120 graphics mem and 0 other mem

If I type avail by shell I do have:

Type  Available    In-Use    Maximum    Largest
chip     622888    424664    1047552     608936
fast          0         0          0          0
total    622888    424664    1047552     608936

is it normal that I have ZERO Fast Memory and I did not open any application?

What can I do to have a normal amount of fast ram?

Thanks

It means that the Amiga 600 has only 1MB CHIP Ram by default, no Fast ram at all and you can use a memory expansion or an accelerator to add Fast Ram.

Do you have any kind of these boards added to your Amiga and does not work?

Memory expansions are not cheap but if you can get one of them 8Mb boards like im trying to then you would be well off.
