Re: Mediator 4000Di Help Please

My old Voodoo card died about a month ago and I've had nothing but trouble getting a Radeon to work in my Mediator 3000. The first card didn't seem to work at all even with 3.3 volts provided. Today I got a Sapphire and it was at least recognised by pciinfo but there's something really strange happening.

When I boot without S-S and type pciinfo it shows output similar to this

Pci Device 1:
VendorID: $1002
VendorName: ATI
DeviceID: $5960
DeviceName: RV280 Radeon 9200 Pro
ClassCode: $30000
RevisionID: $1
InterruptPin: 2
SubsystemVendorID: $174b
SubsystemID: $250
MemSpace0: $40000000 - $47ffffff
IOSpace1: $60c06000 - $60c060ff
MemSpace2: $50000000 - $5000ffff
RomSpace: $50020000 - $5003ffff

Pci Device 2:
VendorID: $1002
VendorName: ATI
DeviceID: $5940
DeviceName: RV280 http://www.ati.comRadeon 9200 Pro - Secondary
ClassCode: $38000
RevisionID: $1
InterruptPin: 0
SubsystemVendorID: $174b
SubsystemID: $251
MemSpace0: $48000000 - $4fffffff
MemSpace1: $50010000 - $5001ffff

But if I let it boot into WB the first device changes DeviceID to $59f7 or something else, secondary seems ok. If I change slot I only get the primary device, the monitor driver loads but the computer hangs if I try to show any screens on the Radeon.

The PSU was replaced about 9 months ago and the drivers are the latest from Elbox. A "new" Voodoo card seems hard to find, and usually (?) expensive.

And suddenly the card seems to work. For like 2 minutes.

I change the WB screen mode to Radeon, full colour glory! Reboots and now my Amiga thinks it has 33 pci devices. 32 are unknown and the last is my NIC. Either the Radeon ore the Mediator is broken. I'll see if I can get the Radeon to work in a pc.
