Peter, My name is Ken and I was stationed at Barksdale AFB for a few years. Although it was five years ago I may be able to dig up a few numbers for you to try. Give me a couple of days and if you don't hear from me, drop…
Thanks for the info….I have heard great things about GVP too. Ease of setup and pre-formatted drives if memory serves me right. Again, Thanks. Ken Dunham 76467,601 – via Whap!
Thanks for the input. 2.0x is a definite upgrade, I have heard too much about it. What about compatibility problems though. I have many games, and productivity software that were purchased long before 2.0x. I would hate to lose all of that. Guess maybe I had better go with a…
Upgrade 500 help – HD
Message #73191
I need some help in upgrading my A500. My current system is WB1.2, 1084S monitor, 2 Meg, one internal, and one in an Supra Ram 500RX. I want to install a hard drive, and gain Pal compatibility. As I (well actually my wife) :^) is due in just 17 days,…
Thank you Steve. I believe I tried DiskSalv on it, and it worked maybe once but then again same error. Must have been a dud. Actually it was my Whap! that crashed but I re-built it from archive. *Again Thank You* Ken Dunham 76467,601 – via Whap!
#Disk Validation error
Message #22923
I have recently had trouble with a few of my disks. While it is probably something to do with the media, I still would like to "fix" this problem. Disk Validation error. Bad Header 957. Or something like that. I believe that I saw somewhere a Shareware program which would…
GOTTA SELL!!!!!
Message #55062
Don't need a whole system….already got a 500. How 'bout that hard drive though!? Leave E-mail if interested with ball park of what you want for it. Kenneth R. Dunham Jr. 76467,601 – via Whap!
Interested in Flight Sim II, leave E-Mail to me for details. Ken Dunham….76467,601 – via Whap!
All I know is that it is a new product *Supposedly* on the market (or soon!) that uses the 500 to drive a cd unit. After all the CDTV is a 500 with a CD instead of a disk drive. All I know is what was in AMIGA WORLD this…
Thank You Dave! Sorry that you had to find out the hard way, but I am glad that you passed this info on!! Hope everything is going better now!! BTW…have you heard about the A592? Makes this little 500 a CDTV! Looks like another piece of hardware I can't live…
Thanks Michael, I have been looking around and have recently seen more info on the GVP with thier PC Board. Still a little pricey for me but definately look promising! Thanks, Ken Dunham…..76467,601 – via Whap!

#Whap! – FileFinder
Message #41466
HELP! I use Whap! because I wanted (and frankly, needed) a point and shoot interface for the Amiga and CIS. Now I am having problems and I truely hope that they are small or temporary ones. I can no longer catalog a lib because of the new filefinder software. What…
Jonathan, Backing up your start-up sequence is an absolute must. Being a once a "not-so-handy-but-I-will-try-anything-once" sort of Amiga user, I too ran into much the same problem. Here is the trick. One of the first things most scripts do. They fool around with this and that, setting patches, creating ram,…
Dear Mike, While I apologize for my haste and bitterness I must say that I was not directing it to you (not as much atleast as it sounded). I have had it up over the ear drums with people down playing the AMIGA (much as I did before….I was a…
I am a bit surprised. You are either blind or snobby. Maybe you haven't seen the products available for the AMIGA 500 lately. Do yourself a favor and buy a few AMIGA WORLD magazines and actually READ it (NOT just look at the pretty pictures!!) With the ATonce you can…
#NEED HELP! – SUPRA 2400
Message #15203
Hello Out there!! I am having MAJOR problems with a SUPRA 2400 Modem. I don't have any documentation for it, as I bought it second hand. Here is what happens. It initializes as OK and when given the ATDT command it will go "off-hook" but it will not dial. Is…
I have an Amiga 500, so I (unfortunately) don't have the problem you do with the "backwards drives". A friend of mine does though, and I think he "swapped" the drive connectors (jumper cables) to the drives so that the drives were in a more "PC" type order. Just a…
#Where is ARP?
Message #14106
Hello! I have DL'ed WBUndo and had hoped to use it….but I have run in to a bit of a wall. I don't have ARPv39+. What is ARP and where can I find it? I have looked around on CIS a bit but haven't been able to find it. Any…
Hi Jason! My name is Ken and I am a fairly new CIS user myself. I have had a 500 for about two years now with 1 3.5 ext. drive and 1meg. Anything less is VERY frustrating! But now I am enjoying the wide spectrum of views, opinions and friends…
#Need a GOOD Text Editor
Message #14015
Hello ALL! I find myself with a need for a good text editor. One that can handle large files (a few over 20 pages long) and hopefully search and replace. I have in my collection of "stuff" many help files and other documentation for games and other programs. I would…

Message #10537
Hi All!! I am looking to hit it big in the LOTTO…I know, I know…good luck! I have seen many differant lotto programs for the IBM side of the house but not too much (actually nothing yet) on the Amiga side. Has anyone seen or have for download a lotto…
