Unless I am way off the mark here, but the PCI cards will not show in the amigas early startup screen

Yes I know this  :-)

But was making sure that the user with the problem was not getting confused with this and the amiga early startup screen

Only if you selected it when you installed the drivers

ummm depends on the firmware version of your blizzard card as far as I remember.

Cant remember when this was implemented.  But you should be able to see the amiga or blizzard early boot up menu on a monitor connected to it, as long as 31hz output is set on in the blizzrd menu.

nope it 100% works on a blizzard for a1200.  I and others have done this .  But it only works on certain firmware revisions. its a setting in the bppc early startup
