Building a fakeamiga by an a old pc
« on: March 29, 2006, 09:06:43 PM »
Im new here, but I have a Amiga 500 sinces my childhood.
I really love that computer, I used to played on it everyday, but nowdays I play it sometimes.

I also like to build custombuild computers...

the questions is: Can I build a pc-hardwarebased computer that act like a amiga ( run amiga apps & games ), read disks and cds for amigas. I have a huge collection of games for my amiga 500, is it possible to use them for a pchardwarebased computer? If it work, how can a do it?

I will know how far I can make a pc work like a amiga, and what things who is impossible to make the pc do that amiga can do..

The powwa from amigagames are with u...

I have AUEemulator and some roms ( the roms are same as my orginal games on my amiga, so this may not be illegal then I have licens for them ).
But its not fun like real stuff, but I think it will be more fun if I using a homemade Amigaclone instead a emulator on my windows-pc..

How Can I get more info about that PCI-amigadisk-for-pc-thing. ;-)

I understand that with AUE, its need windows to boot up, and thats very boring and not so amiga-likeit.
But is it possible to install AmigaOS into a pc, then run software who are for amiga?

I have some old pc-computers under my bed, and even it will take a year to make it smell more like a amiga, it worth it!

That AROS-os, can I install that on a ordinary pc and just use what amiga-app and games I want in it?
If so, I wanna know How I get this AROS. And what hardware it support.

I have a idea, maybe sounds bad for some of u.
How cool would it be to build a amigacomputer as it could be a futureamiga, from old amigapart or/and maybe som pcparts, Running latest version av AmigaOS or AROS, can run all amiga-games&apps. But even design the hardware nice.
I being thinking about a new cool version of Amiga 500, but a dvdslim-drive instaid of a diskdrive, a hardisk, USBports and so on.

 :idea:

I also think to build the fakeamiga so it can run other games from example Snes, nes, sega, c64 and so on...
Can I have both windows and AROS on same system?

I gonna soon show a prototypepicture of the computer I gonna build.

AmigaOS XL? Does it work with pchardware?
I have a Amiga500, but I can´t hit it when I lose on a game, and the left mousebutton is damage, the soundport are also in good shape. The disks giving up one after one... It´s easly to run everything on a pc..
A pc is more cheep easy to get spareparts, I have lots of old pc who I dont know I do with them..
