Flashing yellow screen?
« on: December 04, 2003, 06:48:39 PM »
I just got an FPU for my Blizzard 1230-IV accelerator, and after fitting it (50Mhz 68882 FPU) as soon as I turn on the A1200 I get a flashing yellow screen. I suppose the FPU is DOA...or is it? Could it be something else? The FPU was oriented in the same way as the 030 CPU (as pictured on B1230-IV box). Without FPU the computer boots fine.

40Mhz 68882 worked in it fine before I sold it. It was one of those 40Mhz tested to work @ 50Mhz too FPUs. I doubt that the socket is busted.

Maybe I should try and reseat it again and see if it works.
