Hi thanks again ,I must be totally in the wrong place for the startup because I don't see the $VER: that you refer too ,to get to the startup I input ed s:startup-sequence ,is this wrong? I am using 3.9 ,best wishes Brian.

You scrolled all the way to the top?  I suspect if you take a screenshot of your Startup-Sequence or post a photo of it from your phone he can tell you exactly where this command goes. That's what I'd do. ;)

The $VER: statement that Paul mentioned is right in the middle of your picture. It looks like you've got some other stuff going on above that, however? You'd probably want to put the ACAtune command all the way at the top, before your CardReset patch and wireless drivers (and whatever else you've got going on there) kick in.
 
Not trying to be a smart-ass but you may want to post a better picture, for clarity sake. Here's how to take a photo of a screen. I did this with my cheapo camera phone, or you can use a screenshot capture utility (no special camera required). ;)
 
You can use the "Manage attachments" button to attach it to to post, rather than having to embed it.
 
In other words, if your startup-sequence were mine, you'd probably want to put the command directly below those first two lines. The ; (semicolon) at the start of them means they're commented out. Or you might want to put it after all of the 3.9 ROM updates. That's a question for Paul. If your startup-sequence looks anything like mine, that is. :confused:

Haha, yes, if it's working now then leave it alone. From that photo you posted of your Startup-Sequence I was kind of amazed that your system manages to boot at all. ;)
 
Edit - Paul is right, from what I recall 3.9 can be picky with MapROM stuff because of the way it replaces some of the ROM data with it's own updated routines. You've got to get it just right, so the ROM is mapped into fast memory, but the correct updates still take precedence over them. My GeForce '040 can do MapROM too, but I just disabled it since so much of the libraries in ROM get replaced by 3.9 stuff anyway, it's hardly worth it, LOL. ;)

LOL, I thought my A2000 booted up pretty quick, but then I had it sitting next to an X1000 and that thing was smokin'! ;)

I believe it's designed by Majsta and built by Kipper2K, who's hardware I can recommend 100% (looks like you have some of his stuff as well). Good stuff, if I had an A600 I'd be all over this thing! :D
