Many of them should be working on the ACA620, although I know that '-burst' won't do anything. |

In the case of the video, it's "chipcache". The guys even read in the readme that "chipcache" is only supported by ACA1230 and ACA630, but not on other cards. Still, they're trying over and over again to activate chipcache. Each and every option is explained in the readme. For every option, there's a sentence that says which card supports this, and which one doesn't. It's not all that complex. Heck, there's even a hint at the next accelerator I'll be making, and nobody has found it. I wonder why I'm taking the time to write that documentation if you guys keep ignoring it. Jens |

I must admit that sometimes information and documentation is hidden well. Take myself as usecase: Buying an ACA-1231 for the A1200. Reading Vesalias productpage I get the impression that this will work with most A1200 motherboards: Quote:
I find your work, presence, and enthusiasm regarding good hardware for good computers inspiring. I would like to have you well seated just beside my soldering iron. In the meantime it would be nice to be able to find product, documentation, and links to hints/solutions from icomp.de. |

You put in a lot of time to develop high-class products, so why not spend a few minutes making your company page a showcase of products with correct drivers and/or manuals? I realize of course that you're (virtually?) a one-man firm, but as a friendly suggestion your site needs some love. Some of your currently/recently selling products aren't even there among the products. It's the place every fan will go when they want to shop for your inventions. And manuals aren't written with average attention span in mind, lucky that! They are written by companies to document usage, requirements, and features of products. We'd all love to be able to use and supply technical support for your products in 2020 here in forums. If you get what I mean. And I know you know what I mean if I say any Amigan is desperate to get a 1% faster Amiga. That's why you put "don't even think about overclocking" on the ACA. So you know why they were behaving "irrationally" in the video |

Wow - just got a delivery from FedEx - I thought my wife had ordered more clothes or shoes but it was my ACA1220 from Amigakit!

Believe me if I tell you that if there was a single word telling about a new SATA controller it would had some more people asking

Mine still isn't working (crashes after typically 30-45 mins), and I've done a lot of things trying to make it work: Cleaned the CPU pins very thoroughly Opening the case, putting a fan on it to keep it cool Desoldered the CPU, cleaned up everything and soldered it back in to get rid of any micro fractures Soldered in extra supply wires from the connector to the CPU decoupling caps Added extra decoupling caps (on U1A/B on MB) Connected a heavy ground wire from motherboard to ACA Tried another PSU Tried another A600 (both A600s have fresh caps) The only thing that seemed to help was the extra thorough cleaning of the CPU pins which improved stability from ~5 mins to ~45 mins, but it won't get any better. I'm just waiting for Vesalia to respond to my mails, as I've run out of things to try (and obviously won't try modifying the ACA as it'll break the warranty).

But he just said it's not his computer and his problems aren't gone. What sort of setup can lead to this behaviour? My A600 is pretty old (20 years this xmas) |

Ok, that was mean. Here is a hint. Every Amiga in use is about 20 years old, or more. Age alone isn't the cause. One thing is storage, another is how it's been treated, and lastly, these issues were there already when they shipped from the factory, so some machines have had them all along. There is pretty much no way to know. But to try. B! |
