A3000D no boot from SCSI, what could be wrong?

[Tumbleweed]

I moved house a couple of months ago and packed all my Amiga gear and shipped it a few hundred miles to the new place.

The A4000D worked staright out the box as did the A2000D but the A3000D isn't booting when the harddrive is connected to the internal SCSI header on the mother board.

The machine wasn't booting at all until I reseated the A3040 V3.1 card.

I can get it to boot from floppy with harddrive disconnected. But as soon as I connect it to the internal SCSI header, no boot - just a black screen.

Ive tried all sorts of things - swapped known good HD's from the A2000D, no good. Fitted the GVP SCSI card from the A2000 in the A3000. Won't boot from the HD but will boot into workbench from floppy and once booted I can see and access the HDs on the workbench screen.

Anyone have ideas what else I can check?

Thanks.

Weed.

All thanks for the quick replies.

I'm not quite sure what I did but I've got it working. Prob could have been one or all of the following:

1. Incorrectly fitted SCSI cable - I may have missed a row of pins out when fitting.

2. SCSI termination. Prior to the move I had a external CD rom connected via the external SCSI port. I connected the CD and fitted a terminator.

Its booting fine now.

What a relief i thought I'd killed my fav machine in the move.

Thanks all for help and advice.
