Help! I just got my Lucas/Frances board moved over from my 1000 to my 500, but i seem to be having a few problems... The board is reasonably stable during use, but seem to be hesitant in coming up after a reset. About every third time or so the machine will just continuously reset for a few seconds, and then guru. After pressing the mouse button to end the guru, the boot hand ALWAYS comes up. It never loops again. (unless you reset again) Since this problem seems to occur only after a reset, I was wondering whether there was something different in the timing specs between the 1000 and 500, perhaps in the reset signal. I know the reset signal from the keyboard is made differently, but that doesn't change the timing, does it? Other than that, the machine works great (I'm on it now.) 1 Meg chip ram sure is nice! Also, the 500 keyboard is really nice... I put the 500 motherboard in an AT case, and sawed off the front of the old case to make a detatchable keyboard. Thanks in advance -Vince
