Turn on CPU FASTROM and retry this. With the ROM in cacheable FASTRAM it means the drivers run entirely inside cache.. I agree you can get better out and out disk performance but the CPU is stalled anyway if the ram is contended so you dont really get better system performance. Actually surprised at how slow your RAM access is. |

The Blizzard 1260 cannot be accused for having very fast memory. However, the ram-handler is quite a cpu hog in 3.1 atleast. If you LoadModule the ram-handler from 3.9, you will get better figures for RAM:. Blizzard1260 ram speed plus verification that rom is in fast: Code:
9.Ram Disk:> bustest fast rom Not implying that dma controllers helps with raw disk transfer speed, just wanted to show that they can be fun when the system is under load :). |

No but it runs fine at 25 & 36 MHz, so I don't think I need them.

@ aalenppc & Black68:
i am starting to suspect Your CPU's guy's. i have same type CPU's Steve uses in his streams, he and also me have no probs running TF's on 50Mhz, even more, i am pretty sure, ceramic CPU will also run @60Mhz without heatsink (without FPU), however, i can't test it as i haven't 60Mhz oscillators here. @alenppc: i am not wondering Your CPU fails if You try to overclock it: http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php...0-board-25-Mhz this is 25Mhz CPU, it will do it's job nice @25 or even @36Mhz, if You push it higher - it will go hot and fail, so just try different CPU's and You will be surprised regards, -Viktor |
I have 33 and 50 MHz cpus for testing, but I could not get them to run reliably at anything above 36, but to be honest I need more time to play with it, change the R3 value, etc.
R3 at 10k seems to work better for higher frequencies but maybe I need to go lower. |

http://www.ebay.es/itm/1PC-MOTOROLA-...72.m2749.l2649 As I said before, with last firmware I can go up to 48mhz but without FPU. With FPU WHDLoad gives many "Illegal Instruction" errors. I've changed R3 to 1k but doesnt make any difference as far as I can notice. I'll try 10k. Bought an Amiga Rev5 mainboard to do more tests, as I only have a couple of Rev.6 boards now. Waiting for it to arrive. |

I have also "illegal Instruction" with last firmware (i am using 50Mhz rev.2 firmware, my cards are working fine on it) will try to remove FPU and test without it on last firmware. |
My guess on the "illegal instruction" (I get it too @50MHz in diagrom) is that the pullup resistor for the FPU is not large enough leading to inconsistent detection of the FPU. I'm going to play around with some values as suggested above - glad it's not just me!

OK, I had some time tonight so I was able to get the rev2 to run at 50 mhz at last! It only works with the beta 50m firmware though (the one that requires the FPU), the new firmware just yellow-screens to hell and back. Still, pretty neat... The IDE now does 6.6 mb/sec :P
I experimented with various R3 values, and 47k is still the most stable. The lower you go the less stable it is. In fact, with lower values the new firmware doesn't even do anything but perm-yellowscreen, while with 47k it changes colours a bit and even occasionally clicks the floppy drive. Ok, now time to pull out the old ISSI RAM experimental card and see what it does with this firmware... |

Hey, I know that card :D
Brilliant video! |

What was the final solution to the issue you were seeing with compact flash cards drawing power from the same supply as the 500? Which firmware specifically allows you to hit 50mhz? There were many betas. ;) Thanks. |

i use 50Mhz firmware dated with 14.05.2017 it works really nice |
