Hooooo Strange problem with WB 3.1 on A3000Tower

Hi,

I can't install WB 3.1 on my A3000T
It has KS 3.1 bought from vesalia and 16MB FAST ram.
When I had WarpEngine inside A3000T, WB 3.1 and AmigaOS 3.5 worked well.
Now WarpEngine is gone and I don't have it.
Since I removed the WarpEngine I'm getting 8000 0003 guru's while booting from an original 3.1 Workbench disk with kickstart 3.1. I don't know what's wrong, it always worked well with the WarpEngine
Maybe I set some jumpers wrong but I don't think so?
I find it a bit strange that everything worked fine with my Warpengine and without I'm getting these errors.

Booting with the 2.04 kickstart and workbench 2.04 supplied with the A3000 works fine though.

I've been testing the A3000 today with kick 3.1. I can only install Workbench from the original WB 2.04 set supplied with the A3000.
And even connection of SCSi HDD with preinstalled WB 3.1 ends with this error.


Any help will be appreciated guys

My 3000 didn't work with Kickstart 3.1 roms, either. It was hellishly unstable, even using just the onboard 030.

I put it down to ROMs that weren't fast enough and I just softkick the developer version that I have of 3.1 from time immemorial.

Running with 3.0 roms installed (or whatever version) but 'fooling' the machine into thinking it is on 3.1 via software...

Yes it is. I'm running my A4000 with a softedkicked 3.1 and OS3.9 and works great!

You should give a try. What kind of CPU card you have now?
