Thanks Retroman !

Yes, I know about the AR problem with kick higher than 1.3, but that wouldn't be a problem since I have a kickswitcher with 1.3 and 2.0, so I could still use the AR with diskgames and 1.3

Anyway, I am not really 100% sure if the Supradrive & AR actually did work together ? Could also be possible it only worked when the HD was switched off ( it was external connected to the controller on the side-expansion port) ?!?

About the IDE-to-CF adapter:
Do these also work on the XT-IDE connector of the A-590 ?
And if they work, are there drivers available like for the 600's PCMCIA slot ?

Ofcourse I could use an A-600 instead of the A-500 ( with kickswitcher to 1.3 nearly everything works there as well) , but I would like to use the AR ( the freezer is just VERY comfortably

)

As I don't think there are any hardware solutions to connect and AR to the A-600, nor any special AR A-600 versions, how about loading the AR software version with the A-600 ? Is that one for the 1200 only or would it work on the 600 as well ?

Thanks again !
