thanks for taking the time to read my waffle

just remembered another question, sorry.
is it possible to boot the 1200 as a 500+ or 600 with the rom version 2? i can only find 1.3 kick


Nah, stick with 3.x ROMs when using the 1200. Just hold down both mouse buttons when you boot. From the boot screen, you can choose either the Original Chipset (A1000/500), Enhanced Chipset (A3000), or AGA, the choice of NTSC/PAL (depending of the program), plus if you boot older games from floppies, its best to click on "no cache", and it'll "emulate" the earlier machines.

There's nothing to be frightened about, if you use C= monitors. It'll handle the basic screen modes that Workbench offers with little input from you needed.
Amiga 3000D UP and running! Hear that clicking. 8)
Amiga 3000D & 4000D in storage sadly.
