Okay then.. I'm sensing a lot of resistance.

You need to tell us a lot more in detail to help you,
I notice you have lots of distractions (Finex, Dir Opus, Enhancer different file systems (SFS)

I guess you are using a A1-G3, as a base...

The clues bring us to asking for what is setup in your KickLayout file? It should include FastFilesystem, CDfilesystem, NGFile System, and SmartFile System on a X5000

There's so much more!!!
Who's your dealer? Maybe they could help?
What did you do to make your system unstable?
Maybe you could make a video, so that we could see what's going on?

You never responded to the Epsilion question?

without your help/info.. I can't do anything but point blindly

Sorry

Hey Mame,

Well that card is older, but it works on OS-4, Morph and Linux.
And it is compatible with the CD install.
this makes things (more) simple.


Try something and remove the hard drive to protect the info
Then just boot from the cd.
You can learn how to OS-4 from the cd boot (smile)


My response to your Fienix question is the same..get a hard drive and Make your life easier (But Since you can run it from the usb stick..even if it's really slow compared to a hard drive.

Just follow the excellent instructions (see Fienix page) that you got when you bought or downloaded the image. I bought the usb version.

BTW, did you look at Epsilon site (lots explained)

Save some cash (no lattes) and get that newer hard drive

Fair enough..

Knowing the graphics card is important.
Hummm, sound old? what is the number?

If it is a RadeonHD type will work better with CD install as it has driver for HD

If the card is RadeonRX, we have to make some changes.

So you are in the EU,

come to AmiWest for vacation! I'll still help you with getting your X5000 working well

Make life easy!

You have waited this long. Just buy a sata drive.

Shops like newegg have small (just fine for a OS-4) sata drive as cheap as $30

If you spent as much as I did on a X5000 and you really want a stable OS-$ system.

Take your time and build it to make life easy.

Michael (from AmiWest)

or bring your stuff to a SACC meeting or AmiWest and I will help you build it!

BTW, what video card do you have?

Okay..
Just make your life easy!

Remove your hard drive (therefore saving all your files)

Install a new hard drive and install the OS (take your time and follow the steps)

The X5000 is not a G3 or G4 (DO NOT use the older setup)

Once you have a stable working OS 4, then you can copy the important files you want!

@AmigaSociety

I have msi Radeon RX560 with DDR5 memory

I also have tested msi Radeon RX580 with 8 gigs ddr5 it needed extra power and is long tight case fit
(i had issues with 3d)

I installed a msi Radeon RX550 with 2 gigs ddr5 in Bill's 5000

I like the RX560 4gig card for several reasons

it's short
it needs no extra power
it really compatible with 4.1 with Enhancer

I haven't figured out the morph card yet

I was able to try out the touch device at AmiWest2023.

I followed up at home with a ASUS VT229H and my X5000.

I will now try to use it with more software

@Cageman

I want to dual boot..

but I can't as I don't have a video card that works with both!

I will continue waiting (sigh)

hello,
If you find any extras...(cpu card) I need one too

@amiganuts

I am using a Gigabyte pci-e Radeon 4650

works on uboot and AOS

@kas1e

No, not using a KVM.
I used the usb rear/bottom ports for keyboards and mouse.

Using the AmigaKit AmigaOne usb kybd
and to further test I used my pc logitech K120 usb kybd

The kybd seems normal under OS4.1

I think uboot is the issue.

I received my Sam460LE, so here's my two cents

My issues were mostly user errors..

But the one thing is the keyboard response in uboot
using a logitech k120 any keypress brings multi repeating keystrikes.
Same for my AmigaONE keyboard from my X5000.

I hope to find a fix and get back to just plain typing..

Any hope of a list of the compatible hardware?

Which graphics card is a good one to start?

Looking forward to receiving my Sam460LE! (grin)

@rjd324

It's an issue with the RX cards..
They don't respond to a soft reset!

@trixie

I would like to use opus12 on my pc to my 5000 this way.
Can you please explain the details.

AS of now, Zita is working but when I try to connect from my pc, I keep getting a log-on password loop..

Maybe a firewall thing?

thanks,

M

@m1nuto

I don't know where in the usa you are...

BUT some of the best OS4 guys are attending (as always)

We will help you! FYI,

Amiga folks attending from Canada, England, New Zealand..

@m1nuto

Bring it to AmiWest2017!

I'll fix it for you!!

@m1nuto

Why are you booting from the cd (of course it won't save/write the changes)

Install correctly to a hard drive and select the highest screen setting you have. After the system reboots from the hard drive.. just install the enhancer pack and THEN change to the setting you want in Screen Prefs (test and save).

why re-invent the wheel.


BUG question... what video card do you have installed???
