Hi All,
I had an Amiga 1000 and 2000HD growing up. I sold my 2000HD to get money to buy a wedding ring. Anyway, I recently obtained a 2000HD. It had a Video Toaster in it with GVP G-Force 030/40 card and a 120 Meg Hard Drive. It also has 8 megs of ram. The NTSC motherboard was shot show I obtained a PAL motherboard. Anyway, I really only want to play games on the thing. My worry is that I might one day put the Video Toaster back in and play. First off, Can I just back LHA it program directory and back them up on another computer? Is there any other directories I need to back up?
I have Workbench Disks. I do not have a GVP G-Force disk or the Video Toaster disks (even know they are installed on the machine).
Basically, I want to start fresh. I assume I need to get the GVP G-Force disk(s) somewhere. Is there anything else I will need?
The video toaster is ntsc only,so the pal motherboard may cause you some trouble since timing isnt right.
as they said above,backing up to cd is easy and works just fine with makecd.
a second hd would also work , just use " copy dh0: to dh1: all clone" (no quotes) in a shell for a exact backup.. dh0: is the source drive and dh1: is destination so change those to whatever they need to be.
the gvp install disk is here:
http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/gforce2030its not really needed though since the accelerator works out of the box and needs no additional software installed. you can use a workbench intall 3.1 disk,just edit the scsi device tooltype in hdtoolbox for gvpscsi.device.
