#48081 #VMM Message #48083
From: kenton barlow Amiga Tech Forum · System Software September 8, 1995 2:53 AM
I have VMM3.2 up and running and have only had problems with older software(pre-2.1) and some old shareware like that on some of the older Fish Disks. If you do have a program that hangs using virtual memory you can generally set the preferences so that the program code does…

I have 2.05 and am not going to buy another 2.xx version just for a VMM. I paid enough for what I have now. thanks anyway. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/

Try ASIM CDFS 2.0 or 3.0. I have been using ASIM 2.0 for about a year and it works fine. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/

From: kenton barlow Amiga Arts Forum · General Help May 17, 1995 9:07 PM
I have p[layed infocom's games in the past and you generally have more fun if you don't use a hint book. Just make sure to read the manual(their manual's were pretty good) and save your game often. They are text-based games and you must use a noun in conjunction with…

The best player I have found is called Eagle Player, although, there are other players that would work fine. Eagle player supports the most formats. I believe that it is in one of these forums. …Via autopilot and GVP 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/

#46529 #Amiga's future Message #46547
From: kenton barlow Amiga Arts Forum · Ramblings April 22, 1995 1:18 AM
I beg to differ with you. If you know the Amiga then you know that the Video, sound, parallel ports, serial ports, etc. are built into the machine and do not require slots. I have (installed in my A2000 for quite some time) a complete 486/50 with CD-Rom, SVGA, Separate…
#46539 Amiga file help Message #46545
From: kenton barlow Amiga Arts Forum · General Help April 22, 1995 1:18 AM
Be careful of viruses from the net, also, sometimes people, when using different archivers will accidentally name the extension as a different archive format, it is also possible that the file was uploaded as ASCII instead of Binary which can do some strange things. On your CLI type "LHA" and…

From: kenton barlow Amiga Tech Forum · Forum Business/Help April 22, 1995 1:18 AM
Barry, The 8372A is pin compatible with the 8370 and, if you have a 512K expander in your trapdoor, wull give you 1meg of chip ram. However, any more than 512K in your trapdoor will not be recognized. If you want more fast ram then get an accelerator, supraRX ram…

I have a NEC 210 external and a Panasonic x2 speed and the NEC is every bit as good. I've never had any problem with mine so I don't know what this other guy's basis is for discrediting NEC. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible…

Amen, my friend. My dual speeds have served me well and I have no need of 4, 6, 12, 24, etc. speed drives. It's just plain silly. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/
#193420 Comms Message #193488
From: kenton barlow Amiga User Forum · Communications April 20, 1995 1:19 AM
Have you tried using X-modem. I know it is slow but I will upload Ncomm3.0 to the forum under Communications. If possible, try to get it and see how it works. It is a newer version and is easily installed in your old Ncomm Directory. I remember having trouble using…

Amen, I will hang on to my A2000 until it wears out, and then I'll revive it. I use it more than my 486DX2/66 and she still handles like a lady. …Via autopilot and GVP 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/

I had similar problems with Ncomm on Cserve and finally downloaded AutoPilot from the user forum. I found that I could upload/download using y-modem with Ncomm AP is much nicer. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/
#193233 #CEI's plans Message #193337
From: kenton barlow Amiga User Forum · Hot News and Rumors April 19, 1995 2:57 AM
What about an AGA card, (much like my 2meg SVGA in one of my four 16-bit PC slots) that would simply fit in a Zorro slot. I have more graphics capability with my 486/50mhz BBoard than with my A2000. Seems ironic to me that no one ever came up with…
#193312 AW belly up Message #193336
From: kenton barlow Amiga User Forum · Hot News and Rumors April 19, 1995 2:57 AM
Well, it really is about the same, in most respects, as AW and has software/hardware reviews plus good advertising. They also have articles pertaining to art/graphics/video as well as hints and tips. Out of all the magazines that I have seen, AC is about the best and, since you are…

From: kenton barlow Amiga User Forum · Hot News and Rumors April 18, 1995 2:19 PM
Hey dude, you're being totally negative man. It's like you are not the epitomy of the duly rectified amiga user dudes/dudettes. All my Amiga friends are really pretty positive people but you are sure bummed out or something. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/

Yes, I just got 2 card in the mail today but had ordered a subscription from Amazing over two months ago. I think that Amazing will be as good or better than AW although it is a shame that they, too, are gone. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only…

Why not an AGA board for the 2000 with all the available slots and also AGA or super AGA, or whatever. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga makes it possible \\/
#192414 vt-100 Message #192451
From: kenton barlow Amiga User Forum · Communications April 14, 1995 1:38 AM
I strongly suggest getting the latest version of Ncomm. I use Ncomm 3.0 and haven't used access since 92-93. Also, Ripterm is awfully nice for BBS's that support rip graphics. I know that Ncomm is available on Amiga Filefinder."go filefinder". Happy computing. ….Via Autopilot and Gforce 040/33. // …Only Amiga…
#192438 GVP Message #192450
From: kenton barlow Amiga User Forum · Hot News and Rumors April 14, 1995 1:38 AM
I've had 2 series-II controllers from GVP and they always worked great(they also used standard simm chips). My GForce 040/33 has worked like a charm (SCSI-II controller included) and the reason it uses their own simms is because they are 60 nanosecond and at the time those were hard to…
