I have both types of CPU riser/mover and both Kipper2 boards, the one with ide and one without.

Both fit fine under the keyboard and top cover on and will clear the mega chip with a row of SIL socket strips :-)

Strange the scroll doesn't work, there are a couple of programs I used off aminet to get my scroll wheel working.
Would have to try and get my A1200 working again to see the startup-sequence though :-/

Actually, I tried the adapter and it wouldn't work.  Double checked the traces using a magnifier and couldn't see anything wrong, but with the adapter in place, the computer was a no go.


Funny you should say that as I had no end of trouble with them, sometimes it will work and then when I try the following day it wouldn't.
In the end because they were so unreliable I went with an ACA500 and probably end up selling the RAM cards :-/

@Lurch.

Well, now I feel better that it's not just me!

Wonder what the problem is.  Normally kipper's stuff is iron-clad reliable.


Not sure, tried it on two A500 plus machines and a rev6 board so three A500s can't be wrong.

Tried cleaning everything also, most of the errors I was getting was hinting at a kickstart ROM problem. I purchased a new 3.1 kickstart from Amigakit same deal.

Anyway they are sitting on the shelf, possibly sell them on and someone else might have better luck :-/
