Hello from Australia
« on: June 02, 2011, 04:43:48 PM »
Hey all have been lurking around for a while and thought it was time to say G'day :)
Had my first Amiga500 back in 86 was such a step up from 64 and 128 or the apples at school :python:
I still have about 3 500's and a 2000HD that works but that HD sing's a bit so if anyone could direct me to the relevant thread with info on keeping a 2000 going would be appreciated.
I'll post up some pics in the gallery of my old Amiga,s now that I have a place to set them up .
I,m known online as lunithy as that's the name I used in Power monger don't know why?.
Great site .....so much info I,m lost he he.

It is hard to describe it makes a high pitch singing that fades in and out a bit with no key bored it got chucked out apparently:angry:  or monitor just used a tv with mono for black and wight to check it booted up I have never used it long,The 2000 is in bits at the moment as I was trying to source another drive with no luck.
I put some pics up in the gallery of HD controller board I think I know the 500 way better:confused: but the 2000 has me intrigued,
Thanks again for the greets things are looking up already:afro:

I tried looking for your pics in under your name and it says there are none!  Did you post them on A.ORG (the lazy way to say Amiga.ORG ;) ) or on another site?

OH!  And if Cammy is in your neighborhood, you are set for life!  She is an avid Amigan, game maker extraordinare and an all around good person too. :D
I put some pics up in the gallery

and yes I,m going to need some help to get this A2000 up and running.

Call yourself australian and yet dont want to stab either Andy Farrell or Gareth Powell?

Sounds like your a kiwi with dreams of being an aussie!
:roflmao:I have allot of Warhawk PSN buddies that are kiwis that would find that hilarious... I was born in Darwin.
 
Cammy I will remove that bugger asap and the  A2091 has all it's ram
slots full from what I can tell also I have a few 520 adapters that came with 500's  will they help?

Hi there,
 
I am a new Amiga User, too! I owned an Amiga 500 and 2000 in the past.

Are there any important things I need to know when I set up my new amiga? It is a long time ago since I used AmigaOS. Recommendations in Software are welcome too... :)
 
Are there any AOS4 Users from Switzerland?
