Why can't I use a Radeon 9200 in my AmigaOne?
« on: December 12, 2009, 05:22:03 PM »
Trying to add a little more horsepower than the 7500 I've got in there now. I've tried 2 different 9200 cards now (AGP), and they both send UBoot into a crashy reset loop before the display is even initialized. Any thoughts/advice?

The PSU is 350W, so power problems are unlikely.

Just had a chance to get back to this thread...

Thanks for the suggestions, but the cards are advertised as AGP 2x compatible and there is a compatibility listing at IntuitionBase, so I don't know what the problem is. Any other thoughts out there?

Can it be re-flashed?

Well, it's useless to me as is, so I might as well try. Have you done this before? What were your experiences?

Thanks for the links.

@ redfox

The OS4 part is irrelevant, unfortunately, since the machine can't get anywhere near trying to load the Kickstart modules.
