WB3.1 install on 4GB Compact Flash - video resolutions?

eebuckeye · 25 April 2014, 02:39

I got my 4GB compact flash to boot ok to WB3.1 on my Amiga 1200 but I noticed I do not see NTSC and PAL resolutions. I only see PAL resolutions which is not too surprising because it is a PAL Amiga, however, I had a WB3.1 install on another smaller compact flash (that I did not create) and it showed NTSC and PAL resolutions.

How do I get the NTSC options on my WB3.1 install?

Thanks!!

Type this in a shell window:

Code:

copy sys:storage/monitors/ntsc#? sys:devs/monitors/

After that, reboot.

Thank you very much!

Last question. :-) It did not mount the floppy when I installed from Win UAE.

Do I just need to add "mount df0:" to the startup sequence? I tried to type it in the CLI and got an error.

Sorry for the novice questions.. I did not really use the CLI when I used my Amiga back in the day.

Thanks!

You shouldn't have to mount DF0. See if you can read AmigaDos disks under the OS (try Workbench, or something). If not, there's something wrong.
