@Xanxi

my friend I downloaded yesterday from Aminet the 3.24 version of SysInfo. The specs are indeed strange but true. It finds my board as 45,2 Mhz!!!
I have an 68882@40 FPU also (I don't know if that makes a difference).
As a kickstart you can see in my Signature that's 3.1 :-)
What kind of screen grab utitity to run just send you a pic?

hi folks,


I have an old 2MB PCMCIA RAM card that I need to run Deluxe Galaga on my A600. If I don't use it Galaga crashes at level 10, and if I do it crashes at level 13!!

Bad memory problem in the way the game was made/designed.


I got the PCMCIA RAM card from www.amiga-deals.com , but they do tend to have expensive stuff there - however it's all tested before they ship items out and they have been in business for about a decade now, I think.
I have had many items off of them with no problems :)



Regards,
Lonewolf10

having said that, I just noticed an auction for a apollo 630 at ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Amiga-600-Apollo-630-accelerator-33mhz-030-fpu-8mb-ram_W0QQitemZ8230033740QQcategoryZ98928QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
but the seller only accepts money order or personal check so its kind of fishy. I would not suggest buying this kind of expensive items if the seller doesn't accept paypal (the auction starts from 70 pounds (where the heck is pound sign on my keyboard?) ( about 125 $))[/quote]

FISHY!? Charming! what about my 100% feedback!? I'm reluctant to accept paypal on more expensive items because of the fees involved. I will by prior arrangement however.

Has anyone managed to contact the people from that polish website? Have they still got any accelerators for the A600? Even a 68020 would do fine for me. :-)

How did you pay? Do they accept credit cards?

Thanks.

@alenppc

Yes, I've asked them if they got any accelerators
for the A600 in stock. After 2 days they mailed me
that they didn't. The last one was send to someone
in Greece. I think it was mfilos that was lucky!
If they got their hands on 630 turbocards in the
future, they will contact me.

 :-)

I regret not buying one when I had the chance in the late '90s... :-(
