Thanks Chris, I got the quit from EUAE working. No joy with task switching back to OS4 though... Maybe my keyboard. will try a different one.

Also on the X1000 soundcard, does the game port work?

@ddni
It will NOT help with your problem, but as your machine probably came with RunInUAE r6 installed, I highly recommend downloading & installing RunInUAE r7 from OS4Depot. It is much easier to understand & use.

P.S. is you keyboard a "Rev 1.0" or not? It should say so underneath it.

[ddni]

Hi Chris, yes it is a Rev1.0.
I have updated RuninUAE.

I tried a different keyboard "compucessory FCC ID = IZI TK-105M" and I still can't switch back to OS4 from EUAE. I can ctrl L-Amiga Q out though.

Welcome DDNI

Quick point to note, the 'alt' keys and 'boing ball' keys are swapped around to match the A-EON Boing ball keyboard (and mimic the original Amiga keyboard). This is the reverse of a Window keyboard which you are probably using.

Therefore LeftAmiga-M (or LeftAmiga-N) is actually Alt-M or Alt-N if using a Windows keyboard. Yes you can attach wireless and wired keyboard and mouse at the same time.

doh! Now I can task cycle with L-Amiga m/n. Always helps to be mashing on the correct buttons.

@ddni
You can (un)swap the Alt & 'Amiga' keys, by doing what I describe here:

Just to say a hello from me too, I received my AmigaOne X1000 system on Tuesday. It took me just half a day to move my files from my older system (Pegasos2 G4) to my brand new X1000. Also changed the option in firmware to be able to use the boing-ball keys as they should be.

I made that decision, to buy the new X1000, because since many months I'm using only AmigaOS 4.1 as my main system (no peecee and windoze thanx), thus I wanted to have a more powerful, more expandable, and modern Amiga system for my daily basis job. Unfortunately Pegasos2 has already started to show its age, but it did its job very well these years.

Currently working for Amiga Future magazine (now reviews will be much more reliable regarding speed etc), and I'm a member of the Greek ATO team, with numerous translations and still counting.

I'm very satisfied with my brand new Amiga computer, AmigaOS 4.1 seems even more stable than before, and everything is fast, really fast.

Thanks to everybody involved in this brilliant project, and on my behalf, I will keep this party going.

PS: Just a big thanks to Eaves for his Digital Universe simulator. Oh, I really love this program (as I'm fond of space, planets etc); thanks for brought it to AmigaOS 4.x and thanks for keep improving it with new updates.

Phantom, congratulations on your new computer! Also, I just got the latest two Amiga Future issues in the mail the other day. I enjoy the magazine very much.
