A600GS & A1200NG / Re: A600GS 4:3 support

I have just run AmiBench in both 1600x1200x32 and 1028x768x32 resolutions and neither crashed for me.

I have the same problem. The menu is unreadable in 4:3, the icons are too large. Amibench does not load and freezes immediately after starting. 4:3 is the natural aspect ratio for the Amiga environment, so it would be good if it worked properly.

What do you mean by 4:3 ? That an aspect ration not  a resolution, 640x480 is certainly not going to work well  but 1600x1200 should be fine, albeit you will have to scroll the menu to see some entries.

AmiBench was demonstrated on a 4:3 monitor at kickstart in Nottingham last year, so there should be no issues with a 1600x1200 mode , you won't get it working on a PAL MODE though ! You may well need to save the screen prefs mode change, rather than USE it to test as a some apps don't yet autoclose with the intuition reset.

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Re: Problems reading CF card
« Last post by Wheels71 on January 05, 2026, 03:31:57 PM »
Thank you for the quick reply!
Not sure what version of PFS3 was written to the card (I bought it on ebay with a CF card adapter and Amiga Forever Kickstart Rom). Yes the IDE card has the Flash ROM containing BSC Oktopussy ROM (purchased from Retro Lemon). That is why it is oktagon.device. Also I cannot see what the partitions are even in WHDLoad. When I try to run HD Tools everything is greyed out See attached. Also attached is screenshot from WHDLoad showing hard drive info (the CF). From WHDLoad the card looks like it is just under the 4GB though...?

I watched the video again. While reinstalling Amibench/Linux, I got a printed email from support@amigakit.com with a link to the Amiga-KIT FTP server. I have to wait for a response from tech support, but unfortunately, there's nothing I can do now.

Okay. So I see you are using PFS3? Which version are you using?

Also you are using an Oktagon.device. So an Oktagon SCSI or IDE card?

Next.

What have you partitioned the card to? DH0=How many MB or GB. DH1=How many MB or GB.
Max Transfer etc. basically how you set this up in HDToolBox.

I have a sneaky suspicion you have possibly done a 50/50 split? I.e 4GB DH0 and 3.7 DH1?

If so, as you are using an Oktagon Oktagon.device driver and 3.1 ROM you may have hit over the 4GB limit on your DH0.

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Problems reading CF card
« Last post by Wheels71 on January 05, 2026, 02:01:09 PM »
Hello (newbie here on this forum),
I recently installed an 8MB Fast Ram + IDE2 board in my Amiga 500++. It is based on the design from Oleg Mishin. I connected a CF card reader to the IDE connector so that I can use it as an IDE hard drive and boot directly to Workbench. The upgrade board works and all memory is recognized. I also bought an Amiga 600Workbench 3.1 + WHDLoad (3GB games and programs on CF)+ Amiga Forever Kickstart 3.1 ROM from ebay. The seller of the CF card says it should work with an A500+ that has an IDE board like mine.

My Amiga 500++ I built myself and has the ECS chipset running Workbench 3.1 and has 2MB Chip RAM in addition to the already mentioned 8MB fast RAM from the upgrade board.

When I try to boot to the CF card I get the following error: FS-III Error Requester TD32 and Direct SCSI access modes failed! Can't read block 7626527 (<4G) oktagon.device:0

Please see attached images

The CF card has 2 partitions. DH0 is System and DH1 is Games: CF card works perfectly in WinUAE
Thanks For any and all assistance! and Happy New Year!
Mike
