Damnit, there should be like a really ram efficient way to detect a PCMCIA CF card on an Amiga. :P

It may or may not be the assigns but as soon as I used the correct assigns the game didn't hang. All I'm saying is that it's worth a try.

Or try this again. I noticed that i've assigned CIV0-CIV3, but it worked for me. Now try this one (CIV1-CIV4). But you really need to get more free ram.

Seems like it is a RAM problem, tried both of your methods and both of them returned the same problem.

It doesn't freeze, it just doesn't load, i can move the mouse ect.

The ultimate test these games without Startup-Sequence, mount CF0: and see if theres enough Ram to run the game. If it Runs it can be automated so if you click on an icon it runs, weather its worth the effort is up to you.

Of-course more Ram would help and run alot more games

Probably not worth it.

I'll try out some more games over next few days, get more on my list.
