amiga format #30. Function keys not working on menu

lost_lemming · 24 February 2010, 12:44

The disk 30 of amiga format. This used to work but now the F keys don't respond to the menu. (pic of the month, tune of the month etc). Was all ok after I took out the ofending NTSC RAM but now this? how can this be!?

It's not my keyboard I can type with the keyboard.

ok what's a good way to test if the F keys are working?

Sorry lost_lemming, but I really wonder if you noticed the edit button below your own posts

For the keyboard test : Have a look on the EAB file server in the folder 'TOSEC/Compilations/Applications'. There you can find 'LSD Legal Tools Disk 012 (1992-08)(LSD).zip' which contains two keyboard test programs.

Ok I'll try that later, but I did check another amigaformat coverdisk and the F key menu on that does but that's crazy, this disk #30 was working yesterday, all I've changed is the floppy drive

ok doing the ultimate test, got the ADF cooking onto floppy as I speak. If this don't work it's deffo the floppy drive.

edit: ok tested the ADF version, and same, F keys not working! this is crazy!
