yes, I read about bad batch 3.3V mediators; mine taken from amigastore

But for starters, post your ENV:Mediator variables, your showconfig and more system specs. Also your jumper configuration on Mediator Swap On/Off (this is probably the important one).
|
Warp3d = No
VoodooMen = 12
VoodooMenOS = No
VoodooInt = Yes and No // tested Yes and No, no differences
Buster = 11
FastEthernet = 0,3,4 //when inserted a RTL8139 PCI card tested these variables (because I have crash and freeze of TCP/IP stack (genesis) when used these PCI ethernet cards, while no problems if used an x-surf100 zorroIII ...)
jumper Master = CLOSED
jumper Winsize = OPEN
jumper Swapconfig = OPEN and CLOSED (tested with open and closed, no differences)

You might also contact Elbox.

if not solved in next days, I'll contact Elbox and amigastore

You could also try DTACK like CMSJ mentioned in the mediator guide.
|
ok, I'll try it

It kind of sounds like what CMSJ was experiencing where his Mediator would disappear after a reboot. Check the early start menu on bootup to see if it disappeared there.

yes, I know about this problem, but It's no my case, in early amiga boot I see always the two references about mediator.
My problem is that I can use correctly mediator and Voodoo3 for minutes, but after sometimes I have a freeze complete or partial of the AmigaOS3.9 and sometimes after a normal reboot of the Amiga, pciinfo doesn't see anymore the Voodoo3 PCI card (so output in PAL mode), or sometimes after a complete freeze (and reboot needed) Amiga computer go in a full loop of reset ... and I need to poweroff it ... then after the poweron I dont' see anymore Voodoo3 PCI card.

I have also noticed IDE drives can interfere with the Mediator being detected. If I use a large CF with the original scsi.device for instance, or using a CF+CDROM with the original scsi.device.

I'm using only a normal IDE/PATA HD of 80gb with scsi.device patched (device of AmigaOS3.9 boing bag 4 for A4000 desktop IDE)
I have no CD-ROM and no CF in this A4000
