[carvedeye]

Hi all ive just re-installed AOS 3.9 back onto my amiga using the emergency floppy and need to know how stop IDEFix 97 popping up every 5mins i have the serial number etc for  it but dont know how to enter the details because at the minute its acting like the trial version. I really dont want to re-format my hdd then install 3.1 then install idefix and then aos 3.9 ...any ideas?

If you need IDEfix and/or want to continue using it, download IDEfix97 from Aminet, unpack it to RAM, open IDE-fix/Register and run the Register program to enter your key number.

If you want to get rid of IDEfix, open Devs/DosDrivers and drag CD0 or EMERGENCY_CD (whichever exists) over the Editpad icon in AmiDock in order to edit it. In the text change DEVICE=atapi.device into DEVICE=scsi.device. Then delete all #?atapi#?.device from Devs and IDEfix and LoadIDE from C.

If you do the latter, you cannot use the second channel of a 4-way IDE spliter any more. Both drives (HDD and CD) need to be connected to the first channel as master (Unit=0) and slave (Unit=1).

Well i dont want to delete anything, i just want to register my IDEFix 97 i have an original floppy so would it work if i just re-installed IDEFix97 from the installer on the floppy?
