A4000 3.1 roms
« on: April 02, 2005, 06:36:20 PM »
I'm thinking about upgrading my A4000D from OS 3.0 to OS 3.1 ROMS.  Are there any dealers in the US that have them in stock and at a decent price?

Decent price?  Almost anything non-Ebay.  :)

@Methuselas

What are the improvements?  I mothballed my Amigas a couple of years ago and just started pulling them back from exile.  My A4000D has a Toaster 4000, TBC III, Hydra NIC, and some other goodies.  I'm planning on doing some video work again.  When I last used the Toaster under OS 3.0 I had some issues with random crashes that Newtek's Tech Support always blamed on the OS.  Was this one of the items that was corrected?

Thanks!

@krize

I've had issues trying to softkick to another OS when using a Toaster so I tend to avoid it.

@KD7HTH

  I'll probably end up getting the 3.1 roms and OS 3.9 for the A4000D.  Not sure if I want to invest the $$$ in the A2000 though.  I'm in the process of buying an A2500 and another A2000 (this one as a parts spare)from a local Amiga guy.  The A2500 has a 040@40 accelerator installed. If the 3.1 roms make an improvement in how the Toaster behaves in the A4000D, I'll move the Toaster 2000 from the A2000 to the A2500 and buy the 3.1 rom for that one as well.  To think I was getting back into this as just a hobby...   :-D

I'm an equal opportunity abuser.  I'll blame both C= and Newtek.
