Amiga Gotek Problem
Hi,
I just purchased a Gotek USB drive from eBay, and mounted it on my Amiga A1200 and then 500 as part of my troubleshooting effort. Basically, I'm getting a "Nor" message whenever I insert a USB thumbdrive. The buttons don't switch numbers, and then numbers never appear. I've tried several thumbdrives and each had the SELECTOR.ADF file along with other .adf files. I tried to update the firmware, but keep seeing a 005 message. I don't know if the unit is defective or not, and i feel i'm doing something wrong. Does anyone have experience with this problem? |

I also recommend you update to flashfloppy - here is everything you need to know:
https://github.com/keirf/FlashFloppy/wiki Once you get it flash properly (read read and read some more it's not difficult, just precise) then you'll know the state of the GoTek. |

The wiki does link to steps but I found this video to be a particularly helpful alternate guide to do the firmware upgrade and do the OLED (smaller display recommended) and speaker mods
[ Show youtube player ] For some reason goteks that are positioned at musical keyboards are sold cheaper than ones targeted at computer users even though they are the same thing, I guess there's more retrobucks to be made... |
