Noooooo, dont say that lol, you make me feel guilty now :)

I dont think theres much on it, so that will be my next step as my old a1200 used to have great stuff like dopus, quarterback, snoopdos etc but I have got loads of software up in the attic that came with it, 100's of disc sold as blanks so I guess they are dodgy copies and about 100 boxed games and utilities etc but ive been out the scene so long I just wanted to get back in......oh the good old days of playing scorched tanks, or canon fodder, galaga duluxe and sensible soccer etc etc they dont make games like that anymore!!

Anything your after I could check to see if I have it.

:(

Back sorry for delay, had family troubles, anyway im back......

Ive got the MMCD from boot_wb but I still cant seem to get anywhere, I really just dont know what im doing and getting quickly confused :(

I still get "no signal" when flat panel monitor is plugged into the voodoo card but I get a display when plugged into amiga serial but the display size is wrong :(

any ideas?

ok after following the read me on the mmcd ive managed to get it to find the voodoo card in the board settings in the picasso96 mode in Sys:prefs but still having problems with screen size.  Also if I use the picasso card connection I seem to now get a test card on display but hey at least its now showing something.

so whats next?
