Amiga 1200 Memory Expansion
« on: March 31, 2010, 11:59:25 PM »
hey people

I should post here more often as Ive just invested in two amigas. Does anyone know where I can get memory expansion for my 1200? I'm not too fussy about processor acceleration, just memory, I'm struggling to run things on WHDLoad except when obviously using the CLI, but even then, some programs dont run.

Any ideas?
Thanks

You could ask here, just the way you're doing. Look on eBay, or AmiBay.
I don't think it would be difficult to get a 4mb expansion for a cheap price.

Enough to mess with WHDLoad



Cheers mate.

Any idea how much these go for?

thanks mate for the offer, but I'm looking to get something closer to home due to postage costs (just recently lost my job so I dont have loads of cash to part with) and the whole waiting for it to be inspected by customs, I read on AmiBay that a bit of hardware was in customs for three weeks, which is pretty astonishing, and I have no idea how much these things go for really. im sorry, but very very much appreciated.

thanks again

thanks mate. does any PCMCIA SRAM cards work with the Amiga? I considered buying a A603 too, its just unfortunate that there isn't a thing for the 1200.

I am completely clueless about this stuff. haha

Cheers
Justin

Edit: Can it only address up to 2MB or can it be expanded beyond that?

thanks all. im just gonna keep my eyes open for an expansion pack and I'm probably better off and saving up for a decent accelerator card, but I think i'll go for the SRAM option for just now as its easier to obtain than the trapdoor cards.

thanks for everyones help. :D
