DKB: 1240
« on: June 14, 2005, 09:01:49 AM »
I have a chance at picking up a DKB: 1240 with 32Mb of RAM at a decent price, but I've been told by the seller that it only works well with OS 3.0 (and below I assume), but OS 3.1 is unstable, unless you remove the RAM.

Anyone have a clue as to what could be the source of this problem?

Does OS 3.9 have the same issues?

And how does one upgrade the firmware himself?

All I see are SCSI drivers.

It's something at least...

...can't find any 040's at a reasonable price, everyone is asking near $400 it seems, at which rate I might as well hold out for the Colfire, or an 060 worth case scenario.

Anyone know where I can get this flashed in that case?

Also, who owned the company that built this card, and what became of them?

would a softkick or what ever you call it when you load the Kickstart 3.1 rom via software, get around this?

Ok, and one final question on this thing (I think).

Does it matter what speed FPU I toss on it, and does anyone understand how to activate it?
