So, our UK PAL CRT friends have had to deal with this flicker for decades?

I have an NTSC Amiga 500 that I connect to a 1084S (120v 50/60Hz) via RGB. When I put the A500 into PAL mode, the image looks good, but there is a flicker (or something like a flicker). It strains the eyes after a while. I am pretty sure that my electricity is 60Hz. If I were able to supply the...

I ordered a 2GB CF card and that finally worked. There is either something wrong with the 8GB CF card that I received from AMIGAstore.eu, or my version of A500/KS/WB/WDToolBox can't handle drives that big. But all is well now. I do have another Amiga, a stock CDTV with an AmiTrix SCSI-TV +...

Can the card be larger than 4gb? I don't know that I have a size that small, but I might have another 8gb cf card I can try.

Following the A500 pictures above (plus some Googling, because I have Rev5), I was able to install the IDE68K and get the machine to start. However, I cannot see the device in HDToolBox. I can _sometimes_ see "CC0" in the early startup menu, but only after a Ctrl+A+A reset. The IDE68K came...

Can I get installation instructions for the A500? The above instructions did not work for me when applied to my A500 Rev5. When powered on, I only got a black screen and no floppy disk activity. But, when I removed the IDE68K and put the CPU back in its' place, everything worked fine again...

Interested, next in line.

Adapter received. Thank you

Declaring interest in 1, for A500. PM

In the US, they were called, "GameShark" and mine looked exactly like that one (Only with a different sticker). Adds tons of extra gameplay to nearly every game. Good memories.

Yeah, I'm actually having trouble getting hdtools to work on workbench 1.3; the original SCSI-TV install disk had a working solution, but I can't find that anywhere (also can't get a reply from Craig at amitrix dot com). So, jumping to 3.1 is the easiest solution.

The itch to upgrade my CDTV is getting stronger,.. I figure I'll need to secure the updated CDTV roms before I bother with anything else. My CDTV has never been opened! Still has the warranty seal on it. Does it have battery leakage problems like the 500+? Is there any reason someone would...

-Lol. My dad says something like this, except he mean underpants. We also have an expression saying someone is no more important than anyone else, we say, 'He puts his pants on one leg at a time like everyone else." Well, I guess if it's underpants, we jump in with both legs!

Oh! Sorry. I use a modern PC for web browsing so I didn't think:Doh:. I resized the source images a bit (though the thread still says they're larger as far as I can see).
