Must have Software for new 1200 Setup?

[yilez]

I know this is an old thread, but someone said "Use WB3.0 if you have 3.0 roms and WB3.1 if you have 3.1 roms" and someone else says "WB3.1 works fine on 3.0 roms".

I have 3.0 roms, and currently use WB3.1, so I know that it works fine, but I was wondering what the benefits are to using matching workbench/rom versions, or whether to carry on using wb3.1.

Also, do you need any drivers to run accelerator cards?

I think my plan is to reinstall but using classicwb when my extra ram arrives, but was wondering whether to base it off wb3.0 or 3.1.

Hmmm I would definitely have to say Classic WB just for the ease of installing everything that you would really need.  I installed it on my A1200 and haven`t looked back since.

I think I'm definitely going for classicwb. I just tried setting up a bare bones system in winuae to run whdload, and struggled to work out how to get an unzipping tool to work. lha was fine, but I tried wizarc, which thought all my archives were corrupt, and dopus, I couldn't actually get to show the archiving buttons.
