Quick Question, whats the speed difference between this, and the Blizzard MkIV 030/50?
Apart from the different memory type, would there be any reason to "upgrade"? |

Jens - I hope these questions aren't becoming tiresome for you. Would you be able to offer any suggestions please for my situation to see if these lock-ups can be remedied without the need for a different card?
I've got the 28mhz version for the A1200. I am on KickROM 3.0 and I believe the AmigaKit welcome screen that comes up when my A1200 boots from the new CF hard drive says 3.9 or it might be 39. It seems to be locking up at completely random points - sometimes just in Workbench less than a minute after startup, sometimes later and sometimes whilst in a game or a demo but nearly always at different points. When I loaded the A1200 up without the accelerator it seemed stable - there were no lockups but I couldn't really test games because, as was explained to me previously, the standard 2mb RAM has been eaten up by the file system and buffers for my new CF hard drive setup. I SOOOOOO want this card to work because it really is a fantastic bit of kit which I want to say thank you for again! |

Cosmos,
both are used, and both work fine up to 62.5MHz. Jens Quote:
This might take some time, but I can assure you that AmigaKit's technician Chris (aka FOL in this forum) has all the required knowledge and skills to find and fix the fault. Jens Last edited by TCD; 01 January 2011 at 11:07. Reason: Back to back posts merged. Use multi-quote. |

Spot on. Thanks, Jens.
I'm a new customer of AmigaKit but I am already very confident in their service and ability so will wait it out. |

Don't bother with a ACA1230/28 if you have a MkIV 030/50 (and at least 16 MB RAM) that works perfectly.

I just tried the following command acatune -maprom * >NIL: and it said that it was copied successfully, but the computer froze. On reboot nothing happens. I have to cycle the power to get it to boot again. I have 3.1 roms and the jumper is open. |

Try without >NIL:, so you can see the error message if any. |

When you say 'nothing' happens? What do you mean? Purple insert disk screen? Black screen? grey screen? If you reboot with the mouse buttons down what happens? Can you boot from a floppy?

Im also guessing that ACATune does'nt like his roms. This is a general comment, not aimed at anyone. As with anything, its a process of elimination. Asking random questions and getting random answers on a forum is not the way to fault find. It makes fault finding a nightmare, especially in a massive thread like this. You need to contact your reseller, so they can help. Last edited by FOL; 01 January 2011 at 18:50. |

EDIT:- I can see your issue posted a few posts back. Not sure how copying the rom to ram would help. What happens if you run something like say "SYSInfo" Does it freeze? Last edited by FOL; 01 January 2011 at 19:10. |

I never had another card with an mmu. I will try it in my other 1200 later today and see if it works with it. I only have kickstart 3.0 in that one.
Edit: If i set the mmu tooltype for any whdload game the machine freezes. |
