CWB Lite and Accelerator Card

Lorfarius · 23 February 2015, 12:55

Just picked up an A1200 with CF card installed and CWB Lite. I want to pick up an 8MB accelerator card and I'm aware there's a different version of CWB for these but does this mean CWB Lite isn't compatible with it?

CWB Lite will run fine, although you may wish to install one of the "fuller" versions, to take advantage of the extra memory.

It's only going to be running games for WHDLoad so I'm happy enough so long as it does runs when I stick the accel card in.

No problem then, it should run fine. All libraries and software components can be upgraded at your leisure anyway. The only time you would have a problem is if you put in a 040 or 060 accelerator card, but just updating the libraries would sort that out.

060 cards are the only ones he will have trouble with,the 040 liobrary is shipped with workbench.

Dunno, I had to copy a updated version of the 040 library to my 3.1 install on my A2000, it was a bit unstable beforehand. It could have been a corrupt file though, I didn't look into it.

I'm looking at this:

Just stick it in and it will run with Lite straightaway?
