Amikit is even more useless in this situation.

@ral-clan: if you wish to have your own A2000 system (from your backup) I'd suggest using a bare WinUAE and set up all config options to your own taste. It's easier than altering the Amiga Forever package (I wouldn't say buying it was a mistake though).

I don't agree as he said that "I'm not really a games/demo user" and "I mostly use the Amiga for productivity, not games".

If nothing more he can at least check how the things (and WinUAE) are configured in AmiKit.


I *do* agree that Amikit is aimed at productivity (and very well done so), but as I presumed the topic starter more or less wants his own A2000 config back, then I suggest just using WinUAE. Amikit might just be far too expanded to his taste (but that's up to him :-))

If it weren't for DOpus 5, Amikit just might be the best Amiga software package ever. My God, how that program sucks.... :nervous:  :egad:

Did you know you can turn off the DOpus5 easily and switch to good old Workbench? Simply use the MorpheuZ tool and turn AmiKit to "the best Amiga software package ever". :-)


Yep, I know :-)
It's just the idea of having DOpus 5 around that makes my skin crawl... :lol:
