I just got the TransWarp GS with version 8S rev. 1.5w. This card is REALLY nice! But, I've beenn experiencing a problem with it. It seems that when I do a cold (I mean cold as in no power to the CPU or Sider for an hour orr so) boot, my system will boot just fine. When I do a warm boot, the thermometer will fill just under half way, the Sider light goes out, the thermometer keeps going but the system isn't booting anymore. When I go into the control panel and fiddle with a CDA or two,, the system boots fine again a. Sometimes, right at the end of the boot, the system will freeze up and say "Insert Disk: /HARD1/". Well, that's my boot volume (the Sider D4) and it didn't go anywhere. I hit return and it might find it, it might not! WWhat's going on here??? I have Apple IIgs ROM version 01 TransWarp GS Sider D4 (not D4A) 40 meg HD 1 Apple 3.5 Drive 1 Apple 5.25 Drive 1 Mitac 5.25" drive PCTransporter w/ 768K and 360K TranssDrive Practical Peripherals PM2400SA Modem GS/OS 5.0 The problem started when I put in the TWGS yesterday. It doesn't seem to matter whether I have the Appletalk/IRQ on or off. I'm getting annoyed! Any suggestions guys? Laer
