Workbench Versions

Hi, I have an A500+ with WB2.05. I have just purchased a Kiskstart 3.1 rom for the machine and it works fine. Is it possible to use later versions of WB with the new rom? ifso which ones, please.

Yes, you can use older versions of WB with a newer version of the roms.
If you purchase the 3.1 rom, you can even run OS 3.9

I haven't tried it myself but I think you would be safe with WB 3.1, installing OS 3.9 on a a500 doesn't sound like decent perfomance to me.

Would be like installing Windows p on a Pentium I 133mhz.
Remember the hardware requirements for installing OS3.5/3.9
Have OS3.9 installed on my A500+ but it also has a GVPA530 accelerator with 8mb fast ram

Yeah, kinda slipped my mind about the hardware requirements. But, as long as you have the hardware requirements, you can do it.
