Kickstart image issues
I'm having some setup issues but with a real Amiga 1200. Amiga 500 games work fine but when I try an AGA game (eg Pinball Fantasies) it complains that it can't find 'kick40068.a4000'. The reason it can't find it is because it's not there due to the fact that it is a 1200
Why is it looking for the 4000 roms? Is it because I'm using a Blizzard 030? Can I fix this by copying the 4000 roms over? I'm using WHDLOAD v16.8. Thanks |

WHDLoad looks for kickstart images in a specific folder, the same place you have put an image of a 1.3 kickstart. Even if your computer has a kickstart 3.1 chip you need to put a kickstart 3.1 rom image in the folder and kick40068.a4000 is the name that image has to have.

the error message of whdload is a bit misleading here, it searches also for a kick40063.a600 and a kick40068.a1200, but neither is found so it it shows only the name of the last one tried.
maybe i fix this in the next whdload... |

I did some research and it sounds like I'm not the only one to have these kind of issues and that it can be a little 'tricky' to setup correctly
I've heard that some older game packs don't work with the latest version of WHDLOAD and vice-versa so maybe that is the problem. I've also read that you need to registered version of WHDLOAD to fix some of the issues. Last edited by NovaCoder; 10 June 2008 at 07:45. |

Just an update from me (I often talk to myself BTW). After wiping my HD and installing OS3.9, WHDLOAD and the roms.....it now works
Not sure why it wasn't working before but there ya go |

I wonder about this all time though, why look for a ROM image of a ROM you have in the computer? Can somebody explain? (in my case it's not that, since I have 3.0 ) |
