Idefix97 Latest Version?

You don't need to buy another license. The version from Aminet is the most recent one and if your license key works with it, it's perfectly legal.

I never heard that IDEfix only works with 3.0 and below. It was made to work with 3.1 at least. And the version from Aminet works perfectly with OS 3.9 even *without* changing anything (scsi.device).

Those people complaining about IDEfix not working with 3.9 have older versions, mostly OEM versions without a key and are not able to upgrade to the latest version for free.

Well it looks like idefix97 and idemax97 are exactly the same.

Yes, they are. There is a french comic strip called Asterix & Obelix. Idefix is a character in this comic (a small dog). Now the publisher thought that IDE-fix was a copyright violation against Idefix and forced the author of IDE-fix to change the name. He changed it into IDE-max. The software is still the same of course.

BTW, the description at Vesalia reads "IDE-max '97 The software formerly known as IDE-fix '97 ;-)". It should be obvious that it's the same.
