There are also some posts about the ACA500 on an A1000 spread over this thread. One straight answer: It will do, what it's supposed to do. |

AFAIK there can be problems with the A1000, but if it works, it will work stable. |

I had mixed luck with a1000's. One machine was perfect, the other seemed dead. Luck of the draw I guess?

Also does anyone know if there is a way to check A1000 mobo revision without opening the case ? |

EDIT: Toni, as you probably suspected it's setpatch that's the culprit! Booted with no s-s and showconfig reports 1.0mb chip, run setpatch and after rebooting again with no s-s I have 0.5mb chip! There's also an error when running setpatch: Checksum failure! exec.library, exec 45.20 (6.1.2002). Happens on the second run of setpatch and is reported 3 times, piped the output to a file to capture it. Do I try to uninstall Boing Bag 2? Last edited by BarryB; 18 December 2013 at 18:47. |

both a1000's were rev a. I don't thinks its the mobo rev that matters:
(from memory) No real difference between rev a and rev 6. they just switched from copper to alumininum traces. at some point they switched to cheap (ie slow and noisy) pal chips. i think this is what the aca500 doesnt like. i know of no way of telling the rev and pal chips other than opening up |

Perhaps 1M custom ROM image works better than setpatch loaded updates. If ACA12xx is connected, ACA12xx 1M ROM maprom is automatically supported. (if 0.80 or newer flash) You can use "acamaprom <rom image file>" to load rom images (note that there is no physical file called "acamaprom", it is flash resident executable) |

My ACA1230/56 reports 64MB fastmem with the original menu - when I updated to the 081 menu all I ever get is 1MB fastmem.

fatbob_gb / jens : im getting the same result with my aca1230/56. 1mb chip, 1mb ram.
Also the AUX CF slot doesnt seem to work ? It worked during flash ( obviously ) but now i cant read the same card, or another card that is FFS formatted. |

@corpsicle
I was getting worried that I was the only one seeing this - sadly I wont be able to investigate much more - I am going away for a fortnight tomorrow. |
