Congrats with your vampire 2, i have one myself and it's a lot fun i must say.
The P96 install is pretty much straight forward just follow the steps as described on the Apollo Wiki.
Only to get some of the screen resolutions going takes some tinkering (640x480 60hz should work out of the box)
You'll have to adjust the pixel clock in the P96 settings to get the most of the resolutions going so they match what your monitors supports.

One quick tip: set resolutions like 320x200, 640x360 etc to inactive by double clicking them in the P96 prefs, most monitors will not support them.
By setting those inactive SAGA will open these on a 640x480 screen automatically if programs are hard coded to use these.

Not me. I only found out about it a Week ago! :hammer:

The A600 was the ugly sister, the kid machine, the Amiga that you could plug nice hardware into but it just wasn't fast enough to do much useful with them. The Amiga that you felt a partially retarded, over emotional, sensitive type for even owning, let along using.

Suddenly I find out the A600 has become the Amiga Tankgirl. :flame:

Natami begat tribes. One of the tribes is called Vampire. Arriving in your local hood soon, in yer face bro.:laugh1: :pint:

I don't know about the DMI adaptor or what the graphics capabilites are, but even if just ECS, if you stick with just 16 greyscale hires laced, I would imagine it's still pretty impressive what you can achieve with that kind of CPU and fast RAM combo.

Well about the RTG, I'm running my WB in 720P high color on the Vampire 2 at the moment and it's VERY responsive.
Currently I'm running OS3.9 BB2 with all the gfx goodies (visual prefs,birdie,MUI 3.8,magic menu with transparency etc etc)
Even when playing an MP3 with Amiga Amp at full quality i do not notice a real slowdown

It even makes the A4K CSPPC (060/60Mhz+233Mhz 604e) feel sluggish

Here another teaser for the upcoming Gold 2 core.

Have you ever seen MPEG playback like this on Classic Amiga ?

Above video is A500+vampire v2 black edition with x13 (multiplier setting)
On my A4K CSPPC+CVPPC I've tested the same fragment with AMP2 (PPC MPEG player)
And i got 13,8 FPS with medium sound options (22Khz)
