Hello all dear amigans!!!

I been away from this site for years.That's probable I found much interested things and joy on AmigaWorld.net.
Most frecuent things to my discussions are on AmigaWorld.net but this site is also interesting too that's why I am here again.

OK,saying it I like to say that my Amiga 500's ACA sidecar type thing is out of control since days,bacause I installed it some coolness WHDLoad games and then when I was about to install the a second Pack it failed to be visible on screen.

My last vision of ACA500 was with my HD being corrupted on SYS after days.

The combo begin to fail,the screen turned black with some moving scroll lines and all then beginto fade black.

What can I do now? What is the real problem about my ACA500?

P.D:Hope to get it right soon

Thanks again for you

Till moment nothing works except the Amiga 500 with only 1 MB installed and sidecar except.

Assuming you have Kickstart 2/3....what happens when you hold down both mouse buttons when rebooting/cold booting? Does it get you into the Amiga Early Startup Control or equivalent?
If so, do the CF HDD partitions show up? One of the partitions should have a priority of 0 (boot partition).

What happens when you boot your Workbench 2 or 3 floppy disk? Does your CF HDD show up on the Workbench screen? If so, can you access your data on both partitions (I'm assuming there are two...there should be) ?

It says on the website it is not compatible with Rev 5 motherboards. Also it mentions something about needing a firmware update.
