A2000 286 Bridgeboard and VGA card
« on: September 02, 2003, 04:16:27 PM »
I just installed a A2286 bridgeboard into an old A2000 I have and I'm having troubles getting my VGA card and 20MB hardcard to work at the same time.

The A2000 has AmigaOS3.1, 9 megs RAM, and a Supra28Turbo card.

The VGA card is an ATI VGA Wonder 16 card and the hardcard is just some generic HD controller card with a 20MG drive attached.

Without the VGA card, the hardcard works fine and boots into DOS, but once I install the VGA card, the VGA cards works great but the bridgeboard will no longer recognize the hardcard.  Anybody know how I can get the two to work together?

On a side note, if I use the emulated CGA on its own screen, the system freezes (even without any VGA card).
