Elbox usually have some well made hardware, i.e. Mediator it's a great product especially the SX/TX and the FastATA.

Downside is you usually get no response when trying to contact them, support is also sadly lacking.

Drivers for the ATI 9200 is also lagging, would love to be able to use it in Warp3d or for 3d games. Even an update of the Voodoo driver to allow me to use both GPU's on the Voodoo 5 would be fantastic.

I've also tried to register three items but no response. However I stick it out because having a PCI option for the 1200 is fantastic.

Waiting on many a great hardware that's been announced to be released is an Amiga pass time. Would have jumped on a Dragon coldfire if it was released. Looking at those teasing photos on their website LOL.

Maybe Elbox will surprise us and actually release the TurboFlyer. Maybe the Dragon will come in to being (how about letting me buy a prototype???) Maybe some new drivers will be released, and maybe I'll get a response from Elbox from the emails I've sent them.

A lot of maybes :-)

You could try Emailing Elbox, they have a contact Email address on their article.


Then cross your fingers for a reply. On to me 10th email over 6 months no reply ;-)

I have tried e-mailing them before, back in 2006... still waiting for an answer...


Wow, that's terrible. Not sure what to do myself. Where did you buy the hardware through?

I'm after a rumored slightly higher riser card for a Mediator, apparently these were being sold for 40-50euro through Elbox.

Even tried Amigakit no answer.
