I have an A600 with 2 MB of RAM and Kickstart 3.1.

The HD I replaced it with a 2,5" IDE2CF reader. I fitted a Kingston 1 GB Compact Flash Card. I use it to play HD games with WHDLOAD.


Exactly the same configuration here  :-D
But.. I use other Amiga's for WHDLoad.

It's nice for playing DuneII and some other HD installable games.

Nope, my fastram is a PCMCIA card I found in the computer scrap bin at work, it was in a parallel port interface for a temperature probe device (long since gone). It's a plain silver card, no markings.

My laptop wouldn't recognise it, it just said PCMCIA_CARD_UNKNOWN_MANUFACTURER and wouldn't install any drivers for XP.

I stuck it in my A600 and booted it, hoping it would'nt kill my Miggy. To my amazement it said I had 4Mb fastram!! It may be bigger than 4Mb, however that's the maximum the PCMCIA port on A600s and A1200s can handle, so I am not complaining.

 :-D  :-D

WTF

Yep, sometimes great things can be found for free  :-D
I hopy someone let me find suck a card for my A600.. I like it because it's portable, and completly silent because my harddisk is a cf card  :-P
