Silly question. Do you have 3.1 roms installed?

Check what happens when Ramsey and DMAC are reverted to original revisions. Disconnect everything from your A3Kt scsi bus and try. If you have the CSMK2 SCSI kit attached, disconnect that too.

Check the serial # of your CSMKII and look up on amiga.resource.cx if it is one of the serial numbers from the bad batch produced.

I am not saying that DMAC and Ramsey are faulty. It might be the case of CSMKII not playing along nicely with these chips. IIRC, Phase 5 never properly tested it with DMAC4/RAMSEY7 due to the fact that these chips have always been so rare. I think I remember this being discussed yeeears ago on usenet.

It's a theory at least. :-)

BTW, has the CSMKII been confirmed to work in another unit, i.e. A4000 for example?
