This is a follow up to my previous posting about problems with the A2090 controller (with ST-506 disk) and Microbotics 8-UP RAM board. I am still looking for a simple solution. Does anyone reading this have any of the following hardware combinations working on their Amiga 2000: A2090 (with ST-506 disk) and any memory expansion board or hopefully, A2090 (with ST-506 disk) and SupraRAM 2000 RAM board If the last combination works, then I could purchase the Supra memory board and use the DIP chips from my Microbotics board so all is not a total loss. Thanks in advance, Peter Meng att!hotlf!pfm (201)577-5400

I occasionally had problems, but I believe them to be motherboard or connector related, since the problem would go away when the A2090 was pulled and re-seated, and I haven't experienced a problems since I changed slots.

Well, I had the exact same problems with my ST506 drives a few years back. Ever since I switched to SCSI, the problem has never reoccurred. ------------------------ George Lin a309@mindlink uunet!van-bc!rsoft!mindlink!George_Lin
