Hi All,
       Right here we go...

1) How do I know if my A1200 is AGA?? It was released in the Desktop Dynamite Pack and the packaging says it has the "AA" Chipset, is that the same thing?

2) Do I need Kickstart 3.1 ROMS for the AGA to work?

3) I have installed a Blizzard '030 Card with 128MB Ram, it regesters in WorkBench as "Other Memory" but it seems that it's not using it, how do I get the miggy to use it instead of using up all the graphics memory, as I find I have to re-boot the system everytime I wanna run a game?

I think that'll do for now  :-)

Any help would be great!
Cheers Miggy fans!!

with regards to number 3)
 If the card is'nt gunna be used for what I thought it would do is there much point in it? (not trying to be rude, just getting the whole jist of it lol) Or does it require additional installation software to make the miggy work with it properly, as I got it on eBay and didn't get any disks or anything, just the card?..

Thanks again.

How much chip ram is free when you have loaded Workbench?


About 1.9 meg, it's with pretty much any game, Monkey Island 1 or 2 (the graphics doesn't seem to "line up" together) and sometimes Theme Park..

I haven't any picture on my WB (as I haven't figured out what format the picture needs to be in for it to be read yet) and the only Icons are the Hard-drive Partitions and the RAM drive, p.s i'm running 3.0..


@Framiga
I'll have to look into that I guess, but I dont have a floppy drive on my PC so i'll have to get one of those first lol..

Better install the games with WHDLoad instead then. I have never had any problems with Monkey Island 1 or 2.


I already have MI 1&2 installed as they came with an install program on the disk's..
