How do I know if I need a timing fix?

stu232 · 04 October 2013, 13:21

I installed my ACA 1232 last night, fired up ACA Tune then set about testing the system. I played various games for many hours and didn't encounter any problems with any of them.

I was expecting lots of crashes etc but so far it is running perfectly.

Is there a specific test I can do?

My system has KS 3.0 and motherboard Rev 1.D.4

Sounds like you don't need any timing fixes.

I must have gotten my wires crossed as I was under the impression that any ACA card and the 1.D.4 motherboard was a recipe for disaster.

Glad I was wrong, thanks for the help guys.

It's a bit of pot luck too I think.

I'm getting my first accelerator in November (if Amigakit still have any in stock). You don't really know whether you need fixes until you try it.
