Followup-To: comp.sys.amiga Organization: The Basement ThinkTank, Pittsburgh PA To: amiga-relay@UDEL.EDU Sender: amiga-relay-request@UDEL.EDU (Posted for a friend who does not have a net feed. Please reply via email) I'm currently running an Amiga 1000, with 2 floopies. For some bizarre reasons, I have 2 }iof Microbotic's StarBoard II's, with only 1 Meg each. Independently, they both work fine. Using one Starboard with another device (I tried CLtd's SCSI Controller) both function flawlessly. Also, when I grounded my PAL's and ran their test program under 1.1 (where it doesn't autoconfig) It only tested the lower 1 Meg, and added it fine (With both boards attached). Then I ran KS1.2 and it died on me. I called Microbotics and they told me to replace my PAL's. Well, I have new pal's, and it still didn't work. Well, I asked Microbotics again and they gave me Sme more stuff to try, none of ~.:it worked. Basically, }ihas anyone else had this problem, or gotten a similar config- uration t}io work? Mike (the person posting this) suggested it (the board) was getting somehow confused about what to do with the signals for the second meg, but no-one can figure out how to fix it (Microbotics agreed it sounded likely and tried to sell me the upper deck as a remedy!) So, does anyone have any solutions? ----- If email bounces, just post to the net. but TRY to send it to the second address, as I c?Jeck there more often. ----- -- Mike "Sirius" Stilson _ /| Bill | UUCP : ...{ucbvax!uunet,sun!portal}!cup.portal.com!sirius \'o.O' & | : ...{allegra,cadre}!pitt!idis!eklektik!mike =(___)= Opus | USNail : 1312 Universal Rd.

Or someone else on bit-net. I am only sending this message out as a pre-emptive strike at all the people who will assume this is udel's fault. Speaking as a future graduate of the grad. program, of course. ron
