What am I doing wrong here?
I'm trying to setup ClassicWB to use on my A600, emulating an A600 to match my real A600, so that when I've got it working the way I want I can then transfer everything to a storage device for my A600 and off I go.
I figured for a A600 with only 1 or 2Mb of RAM (all Chip), ClassicWB LITE v28 would be the most suitable, and I used Workbench 3.1 disks. But I've run into this problem: Software Failure L:env-handler Program failed (error #80000003). Wait for disk activity to finish. {Suspend} {Reboot} I'm sure I've done something stupid, perhaps en-handler isn't compatible with KS 37.300, perhaps it needs better than a 68000, perhaps I've chosen an option that requires some Fast RAM. I figured I'd ask here, any help would be very very much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Troy. |

I just had a look into ClassicWB lite.
in L: it has a "env-handler_disabled" - if you have a "L:env-handler", just rename it to L:env-handler_disabled". give it a try. #1) it is envhandler or happenenv addition, i think. in your startup-sequence there is either: Mountenv or L:env-handler ADDVOLNODE you have to comment out them by setting a semicolon infront of the line(s).

Also try BetterWB instead of ClassicWB. Better for lower specs.

Hmm... So I tried DOpus, and that failed to load, but at least gave me an error message, telling me I needed at least a 68020 CPU... I could get Deluxe Paint IV to load, but that was it. Something weird going on here. Thank you, getting it now to try out. |

CWB-Lite is really meant for the A1200. For the A600 use CWB-68k

I'm not sure if it's a bug in WinUAE, or if I'm simply doing something wrong, but even with CWB-68k it didn't work properly for me. I was unable to change any of the system preferences, and so it was stuck at a 4 colour Workbench.
So I decided to try changing the emulated system to use a 3.1 (40.68) Kickstart instead of the 2.05 (37.300), and bam, the problem vanished. Switch it back to the same kickstart as in my real A600, and I'm back to being unable to change the screenmode. I can double click until the cows come home, or even select the icon and choose Icons -> Open and simply nothing happens, no matter how long I wait. |

You can't run WB3.1 on KS2.x

The phrases "and I used Workbench 3.1 disks" and "KS 37.300" are in the first post...
We need a facepalm smiley for rare cases like tis one. EDIT: Sorry but you may have to buy one of these: http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/...products_id=96 |

Previously the only Amigas I have much experience at using were an A1200 and A4000/040, which obviously both had Kickstart 3.0 |

God bless him, he made a good install.,
And yes, you can't use ClassicWB otherwise. To be honest, I don't even know why you are trying to install such a thing. You have a very basic setup and the best choice is to have a vanilla 2.0 with VERY FEW additions. Most of that ClassicWB stuff is bloat that will only make your system unresponsive. (I should finally get off my arse and do an install that is friendly with stock A600 systems...) |

But also because I have had a basic Workbench setup, and as soon as the kids saw it, their response was that it looked 'old' and 'ugly'. And because I'm so far out of the loop (as you can see), I wouldn't have the first clue what to try adding to a vanilla WB install. This way I can add or remove and always have something I can go back to when I totally screw it up, without having to go back to the absolute basics. |

But "old and ugly" is what it was, you said you wanted to show them "what it was like" and that it is. It was slow, not necessarily very pretty and very bare bones.
Personally, I think when you start adding stuff to an Amiga to make it "look better" on the interface, you might as well use a PC or Mac. but whatever floats your boat. |

That MAY impress the kids. |
