Amiga 3000 fastram suddenly disappeared.
« on: December 01, 2020, 01:50:31 PM »
My A3k's is fully populated with 16Mb of ZIP memory. It's always worked fine without issues for the past six months. Suddenly this morning, the memory is showing as 0.

What could be causing this? Would a reseating of the chips help?

AmigaOS 3.1.4.1, motherboard rev 09/03, daughterboard rev 07/01, Super Buster 11.

Thanks @matt3k, reseating the ZIPs worked. Must be the temperature changes recently, the weather is getting a bit cooler down here.

I actually did read up your buyer's guide - thanks for writing it. I've switched the PALs to GALs a while ago.
