Title: A1200ng Amibench Corruption
Post by: Brinner1964 on April 17, 2026, 03:24:39 PM
Hi everyone, I am having an issue with Amibench, when I tried to install Workbench 3.2, it would not work so I deleted it and added the v46 folder to a new install which worked fine but I stupidly overwrote the amibench system files, I have since deleted the 3.2 install, but it looks like one Amikits system files has been overwritten as when I try to load amibench i get a system request message then another screen appears which says amibench v46 screen string,then goes into amibench only after clicking lmb, which is low res, if you then click something it crashes out, if you do not click anything it either freezes or boot loops, I contacted amigakit but they sent me here, I think this may be a case of re imaging but I need an image file for that. Please help :'(

Did you already try to go to your AmiSphere Profile -> Advanced Update and manually update the system.lhapps ?

I have added the v46 drive to my 3.2 CF installation and can now see the whole system files.

You will need  two steps:

1.
Please go to the Back and Restore tab.

The choose SystemV46 partition in the restore to inbuilt defaults section and click on the Restore Inbuilt defaults when it becomes active (BLUE). You will be offered the option to merge or replace the files, choose replace.

This should reset your  SystemV46 to the version  it shipped with, depending on the age of your image this may not enough to boot from, so got to step before attempting to boot...

2.
Now go to the advanced updates section and update just system.lhaps. This will apply the latest updates.

Hope this helps, let me know of any problems.

Same issue here Amibench quits on loading, other OS installs work fine. Performed all troubleshooting resets recommended in this thread without success.

Can you confirm that you are the latest update available? And let me know the version number you have installed? A fix for rare race condition was included in that last update, and whilst it took some hours to crash on mine, and other testers systems, it's not impossible that it could crash faster on other machines.
