ClassicWB ADVSP Gforce 030 Failure
I have recently installed a GVP Gforce 030 SCSI Combo Card in my A2000 with 13 meg of onboard 32-bit ram. I also have an A2058 ram expansion, and a MegaChip with 2 meg of chip ram. I am running ClassicWB ADVSP on a Mechware SCSI card reader using a CF card. All was fine, until I installed the Gforce card with the 13 meg of 32-bit ram. I have the ram setup as extended ram. I can boot regular WB3.1, and it shows all of the memory, and all is fine. ClassicWB shows up the black w/red text software failure screen, and starts a rolling reboot. It will work with the card fine, except with the extended memory enabled. Does anyone know why the extra memory would cause ClassicWB to crash, and regular WB3.1 would recognize and use the additional memory fine? There is a total of 23 meg, being 8 meg fast ram, 13 meg extended ram, and 2 meg chip ram. Thanks.

OK, I got an update. I installed ClassicWB Lite on a CF card, and it works fine with the Gforce. The SetCPU CACHE FASTROM command works fine. No crashes, so it must be something with the ADVSP version. I am going to try the Full version and see what it does. Thanks.

So, I found that everything I've tried on Lite works OK, except when I run Dopus, and click the C button to configure, then it goes to the same software failure. Everything seems OK except for that. On the Full version, it boots fine, and crashes on simple functions like opening a shell.

So, I now have ClassicWB 68K loaded, SetCPU CACHE FASTROM command is in startup-sequence. Machine boots up fine, is fast, and no problems so far, even when configuring Dopus.
