On the games that refuses to run because of lack of enough FAST RAM, simply edit the icon "properties" (in Amiga we call it "information") and put a semicolon before the "PRELOAD" option.
Expect to see a "slide show" while the games load, but they will work.
Don't know how? Easy:
- left-click once in the game icon;
- hold the right Amiga key (on the right of the space bar) & then press the "i" key;
- On the opened window, click on the PRELOAD option;
- On the under space put a semicolon before the PRELOAD word;
- Press on the return (enter) key;
- Press on "save" button;
-Test the game again.
If you don't like the screen blinking, buy a 4Mb SRAM card, but they are expensive as hell.
You'll find them very often in Ebay auctions and even on Amibay (cheaper and only "Buy-it-now"), but they are rare. Also I found those in various other sites around the internet.
Thank you, Ill give that a go
Nice of you to explain how to do it also
Also @Matt_H Should I buy a card with or without 8K ATTRIBUTE on this page?

Edit: Hmm Preload off, Monkey island 2 starts, i get the lamo copy protection, then the intro where Guy hangs on a rope and talks to Elaine, then it just goes black after that, Might it be a problem not using Preload when it's a game on many disks?
Also I can not get Moonstone to run however I do :S it just freezes the Amiga when I try to load it, with or without preload, I do not even get the blue little box telling me who did the installer (I got a full version of WHDLoad ofc) but when I put my CF card in my PC and load it up and put 2 megs more FastRam both Monkey madness and Moonstone load without any problem
