European games on my North American Amiga 500 ??!
« on: April 26, 2006, 10:17:38 PM »
Hi guys

newbie question here , I just bought a games lot on Ebay , mainly European games and about 75% of them dont work on my A500 , is it because of the PAL format?

Thanks

By the way my A500 run with Work bench v1.3 with 1 meg of Ram , so is there any permanent way to resolve this problem or the ''Degrader'' is the simpliest solution.

Thx

Wow! it's more complicated then I thought  :-D

Again my question might sound stupid but how do I know if my A500 is an older model? is there any production date? and finally how do I use SysInfo to check my dear Agnus?

I'm sorry but one user on the thread wrote............

1MB Agnus is required in order for the Degrader to work.
An easy way of checking out if your Agnus is good enough is by using SysInfo and checking out how much ram can Agnus address.
