Hold down both mouse buttons on startup to access the early startup menu.

AFAIK it's pretty strongly recommended if you have an ACA that you should have minimum Kickstart+Workbench 3.1.

Possibly a timing issue on the motherboard?

WTF is "Maxmem-Sequence"?  Something to activate extra memory on the card?  Or is it like a reduced Startup-Sequence with only bare-minimum software loaded?  Like, just enough to get you functional for playing games?  Never seen that before, but the latter would be my guess.

My bet is you have a bunch of junk in your Startup-Sequence or WBStartup folder that's causing issues.  You could take the "nuke it from orbit" approach and just do a fresh install of the operating system + core utilities.  If it were me, that's what I'd do.  Or you can try to troubleshoot your S-S.  ;)
