Upgrading my a1200 into a case
« on: March 02, 2006, 12:26:28 PM »
Hi all,

I have a spare A1200 and a spare Thermaltake Xaser II case and a spare accellerator card for the 1200.  Could someone be so kind as to let me know what the minimum is that I need to do to turn that into a towered A1200 that can use PCI network and video cards and OS3.9 please?  Also - would I still be able to play WHDLoad games once I upgraded or would the 15hz monitor issue still exist for that?

Sorry about being so newbie but I have had Amiga's for the last 15 years and just fancied doing something different.  My current A1200 is networked via a PCMCIA Ethenet Gold card and has a decent hard disk in it along with OS3.9.  I would just like it to be a fair bit faster and be able to use my PC's monitor  etc.

Cheers....
