Does it seem to turn on at all, are you just not getting a picture, is it failing to load things? Be a little more specific about the problem.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong about this, but I think the amiga might have actually used an IDE hard drive, but in order to make a larger hard drive accessible you need a version of the OS that supports it.
