- The A1200/4000 come with KS3.0 which has a new boot screen called
- Amiga Early Startup Control. This is accessed by holding down both
- mouse buttons (as with 2.04).
-
- With this you can select a Pal/Ntsc display, your choice of AGA, ECS or
- Original Chip Sets and the abiltiy to disable any CPU Caches.
- Many games will work with the cpu caches off and original chip
- types selected (at least on my A4000).
-
- But, for advice, try before you buy. (or ask me perhaps)
