Small question about the extra chipset option.
Hi guys.
i have a small question for WinUAE... right now im using 2 configs, 1 is a A500 config and the other is a A1200 config... I was wondering what is the difference on the "Extra Chipset" option between Generic / A500 /A1200 setting.. which one is better? I'm not sure what Generic does i saw that it have 2 different settings mainly the gary revision and another revision number.. and the A500 setting doesnt have that setting? so does it really make a difference or not? |

Model name = proper configuration.
Generic = compatibility hack, for example adds fake IDE bits to pass IDE tests in KS ROMs etc... Mainly to keep compatibility with A4000 KS3.x ROMs in A1200 mode (AF KS 3.1 ROM = A4000 ROM) Old WinUAE versions had fake "IDE" supported if CPU was >= 68020 but it is gone now, replaced with proper configuration and real IDE emulation. |
