I'm mounting another A1200 and I'll be running my 1D1mb with 3.0 kickstarts, and recently I've read that that is the best you can do if you want to use the Pcmcia with 8mb. In fact I had this problem when using 3.1's.

My problem now is my Hawk ramboard. Time ago I changed the ram but I coudn't get it running with 8mb but with 4, and the jumpers are right (I have the manual).

Now I've ordered another 8mb ram to try it http://www.ebay.es/itm/380306184693?...84.m1439.l2649

Hope this will be ok. I've tried with another PSU and nothing.

The thing is that I've got another 8 mb's one and it wasn't working either. I just can use 4mb with both of them.

Is it just the ram?
