Thanks for all the responses. Ill take the thing apart again abnd have a look at the motherboard to see if it is a scratch or a hair. Im not really bothered about the A500 games as I intend to go the WHDload route anyway. I jsut wanted to boot floppies in workbench and maybe play the odd game (had no idea none of them would boot up).
My 2mb A600 i'll reserve as my dedicated ECS machine. My A500s can go into storage
TomCrazy: Thanks for going through all that trouble and making a video
I'll give it a watch as soon as I get back from work.
Dow do I disable CPU cache btw? Is it in that boot manager tool?
Thanks
Tony
P.s. Just out of interest. Roughly, how many older games are compatible with the A1200? In Winuae when I choose my A1200 config I can boot almost any OCS/ECS game? But maybe that doesnt count.
