A1200 & AcA1232: "program failed" after 10 minutes...
Hi, I have an A1200 with Aca1232, CF card and an Wifi Pcmcia card, it's a fantastic experience for 10 minutes...after that period the Amiga starts to show "program failed" on Ibrowse loading, Miamidx and a lot of programs.
I did the timing fix for rev. 1D4 board, removing 2 capacitors, I changed CF's brand, reinstalled from scratch everything. I've checked the correct max transfer setting: 0x1FE00; Can you help me, please? Thanks, Max Last edited by maxint; 28 March 2016 at 12:59. |

It's amazing: very fast reply!! Thanks a lot. I did it today and the problem disappears if I let the Amiga cool down. Maybe I have a defective Aca? Or maybe I couldapply some heatsink on the chips? Thanks again. Max |

I notice you are in Italy. I live in North of Norway and have a ACA 1233 in my Amiga 1200 with no cooling. Its perfectly stable. Have rev. 2B and done no mods to the board. Whats your ambient room temperature? I have between 20 - 25 Celcius room temp where I live

Have you tried to clean the trapdoor connector? Maybe its making bad contact with the ACA 1232 (when it heats up it breaks the connection)? Also, what PSU do you use? I use Amiga 500 PSU, the ones with 4.5 Amps on the +5v

What you could also do is put something between the table and the ACA 1232. If its "hanging" without the trapdoor in place it could make bad contact and when it heats up it gets worse. By putting something between the ACA 1232 and table that is thick enough to keep it from "hanging" that could make a difference.

Put something in between the ACA 1232 and table so it is slightly bent upwards instead of hanging. See if it makes a difference

If this does not work, try and make a grounding wire that goes from one of the grounding points on the ACA 1232 to one of the grounding points on the motherboard (screw that secures motherboard to case)

How about trying without the wi-fi card? And how's about disabling most speedups with ACATune, trying them one at a time?

It hangs also without wifi card! I tried to modify every acatune commands... It's very strange, it seems that something heats up and freeze the system, maybe a defective ACA? I'll try to make a wire between aca and amiga's ground, as suggested by Turrican. |

Memory could be bad. Can you limit the memory at all or turn it off?
Can you run the A1200 without the card for 10 mins? |

I had similar problems with a memory card on my CDTV. Add the memory, worked fine until you opened a few dirs and ran a program, then crashed. |
