Game arrived today. Everything is just as on the photos. Great service, very courteous seller.

I'm looking for someone in Germany who would be willing to send me a floppy he/she knows will absolutely work. Preferably a Workbench disk 3.1 I try to figure out whether it's the floppy on my NOS Amiga 1200 that died from age or if it's my floppies that are faulty.

Strangely, I would be way more content with the floppy drive being broken than any of my floppies. The drive is a POS anyways. So this would be the perfect excuse to fit in a real DD drive.

Ok. It seems like my floppy drive is acting up. I just took the time the drive would actively try to access the disk and it was less than 5 seconds (3, at the most). That's probably not how it should be, even if the disk was faulty, right? I then tried to remove, re-insert and push the...

Thanks. I guess I'll have to break the seal on Amiga open a bit earlier than I originally intended to. I didn't hear anything strange or loose when I just shook it but you never know. I can't really see the detector pins in this drive (it's a modified HD drive, as far as I remember reading...

Nope. Nor do I have empty DD disks floating around. I was actually planning to do all this once I had found an HDD and installed OS 3.1 to it.

I'm kind of hesitant to throw anything else at it. Won't there be a fair chance I might ruin a perfectly fine floppy? Workbench disks and Magic Pack disks aside, I only have some pretty rare and sought after games. And none of them have been tested by me either.

Urgh. They're all busted then. Install disk doesn't work either. I really imagined those floppies to be a lot more durable. After all, they weren't even used a single time before I got them. Any way I can still boot into WB 3.1? I'm sure as heck not buying another pair of floppies.

I've finally set up my Amiga 1200 I received from Petro a couple weeks ago. While it's in splendid shape (NOS) and seems to be fully functional, it simply won't boot from the Amiga Workbench 3.1 floppy that was included, instead telling me that this isn't a valid DOS disk. Since I don't...

Bump

Looking for a Z3i in working condition.

Ah. Darn. Was under the impression this rule only applied to the marketplace.

I've watched a couple of videos on this matter and, quite frankly, Amiga Vision looks quite good (almost like a Amiga centric Hypercard alternative). Question is, though. Would the professional release (V2/the re-release that allowed people to save their projects as standalone runtimes) be...

I've been offered a Z3i and was wondering whether it was worth the low price of 150 euros. Does anyone know more about it's value? I've been told it's quite uncommon. Furthermore, I'd like to know if it's possible to use this busboard in combination with a Mediator 3000/4000 (Mediator 1200...

Thanks. Contacted that guy on ebay and also made an offer. Unfortunately, he has now quit offering it for some reason and the reply I received before he took it offline was also quite weird.
