I'm also just curious to know if anyone actually has this game? i.e. you don't need to be willing to sell it - just very curious how many copies are out there. I've never seen it for sale.

I've been looking for that one for a long time too. I've NEVER seen a physical copy of it.

Just checking in on this one... ANYONE out there have this game?

Definitely seems to be the case with this SIMM. Had me worried for a half hour there...... :)

It's all good. I removed the RAM and reseated it. Nothing. Did it again. All working. Looks like maybe just a dirty contact or something basic like that. It's now all working perfectly. Whoever said you won't know yourself once you have an accelerator was right - the games run AMAZING :)

So, I removed the RAM and the machine boots up fine. So possibly the SIMM is faulty, or... is there anything needed with the jumper on board? There's options for 70ns or 60ns as well as "Maprom" and "No Map" (or something along those lines).

Hey guys - so my BLIZZARD 1230 IV 68030 (16MB) finally arrived. Took a while to ship here from Italy. I only had about 5 minutes as I was leaving the house, but I installed it, plugged all the cables back into the A1200, turned it on, and......... nothing much happened. I got the green Power...

Hey Carlos - did you end up finding anyone? I'm considering getting my A1200 recapped and found this guy referenced in another thread somewhere. Considering getting in touch with him. http://www.amisynth.on.net/amiga_repairs.htm

Always in the market for a copy of "The Detective" in good condition if anyone has one.

There's a nice copy on eBay at the moment. Might be the one you're referring to though.

Cool - I just searched and found those vented ones. Was just about to order it and realised it's probably just easier/better to run without a cover... or, go really nuts and drill some neat holes in the cover :) Though that might really offend the more discerning collectors!

Sweet - thanks for all the answers. I've purchased a Blizzard 1230 IV 68030 with FPU and 16MB. Will see how things go once it arrives...

I've been looking for a long time for a copy of "Castle Of Terror" for the C64. I'd like the plastic cassette case version with the cover pictured below. Not the big cardboard box version. If anyone has this game and you're willing to sell it, please reply or PM me with a price. It was the...

Am I likely to need the A1200 recapped using a Blizzard 1230 IV?I was hoping to avoid it as I don't know of anywhere to get that done locally. Does it all pretty much come down to the motherboard revision? I'm using RGB --> SCART --> HDMI for display. - - - Updated - - - Sorry to sound like...

Maybe a lot of folks didn't know it has come out? I guess it was only a couple of weeks ago that it became available. Definitely highly recommended though. I like that they didn't hold back on the technical talk - it's quite an in-depth documentary on the entire history and making of the Amiga...
