Changing the tool type with IconEdit did the trick. Thanks!

So where's the best place to get a Blizzard 060? I don't see it on AmiKit. When I click on Accelerators is takes me to a little jumper plug.

I've already talked myself into the arm and a leg :-D  Does any place sell them new(ish)?

I really HATE the video on my A1200, with the 1084 monitor, but I can't really do anything with the A1200 without some more RAM, so an accelerator is gonna have to come first...

What's the deal with the Blizzard 603's? Are they not as compatable as the 030/040/060?

Thanks for all the info.

Well, since I can't find an accelerator for my A1200 anywhere (boo hoo hoo  :boohoo: ), I ordered a Indivsion to satisfy my Miggy jones for the moment. But I suppose that will mean that I have even less memory available.....  :nervous:

I also ordered data and power cables so I can install my internal floppy drive.

Many thanks for the order- it will ship as a priority tomorrow.

BTW: we have some refurb accelerators in stock for the A1200 that havent yet hit our webstore, mostly 030s and 040s


Wow! Thanks for the respones, AND the quick order shipment!

I would prefer a Blizzard 060, but if I can't get one of them in the near future, I may have to settle on an 030 or 040.

Do you think there is a chance that I might be able to get a 060 in the forseeable future? What accelerators do you have now?

THANKS AGAIN!

I'm not married... :-D

But seriously, my new (to me) A1200 is next to worthless without more memory, so I'll take whatever accelerator I can get, so my A1200 can have some more memory. The way it is, I haven't been able to use any AGA games with WHDLoad :boohoo: This A1200 is my first AGA Amiga.
