English Amiga Board - View Single Post - My eternal quest for a stable A4000 PPC Mediator Voodoo setup

Yes that's what I indeed doubt, the Mediator's functioning. The "not showing up after reboot" has been fixed when I got the mediator back, but maybe indeed it's still troublesome. So either I want to compare with a Mkii mediator someone wants to sell/lend me? Or I could take up your offer and send my mediator your way.

I did the gradual troubleshooting already, some time ago. I now redid it with 3.1.4 ROMs and OS. Although the rest felt all more stable etc. as soon as I tried Wipeout again, same issues returned.

I sold my Sonnet some time ago (So I have no need for a 3V mediator), so just wanting to stay with CSPPC for now.

Added my mediator jumper settings:
Master: closed
Winsize: open
Swapconfig: closed

Type of crashes:
Most of the time it's a straight freeze, screen halts. Sometimes it reboots after it.
Sometimes it crashes to desktop, with some wait for disk activity to finish error.
