M1230XA problem
« on: July 20, 2007, 05:44:22 AM »
I have an A1200 and an M1230 XA but when I plug the M1230 XA into the slot, I cannot even get to a kickstart request screen. Is there something I need to do?

Currently the 1200 is sitting on my desk, opened up with no keyboard, no card, no nothing. :-)

There are one or two jumpers on this card. I just do not know what they do. I *think* I have the manual. I do have the box and the disk.. manual should be in there as well.

Used to have one of THESE too in the beginning, a very good card with a maximum of 128 Mb you can put on it. On the other hand I have always had problems trying to fit another A1200 card on the connector, it rarely boots up from the first time, usually only after the fourth or fifth time. In the beginning it was very depressing but now I am used to it  :lol:


The crystal on my card is raised a bit higher so I cannot close the trapdoor slot. :( This is a NIB 1200 so I hope the slot isn't hosed :-) I have a couple other cards I can try but none as nice as this!

I think I tried it with a known working HD. I would boot to 3.1 when the card is not plugged in. I know the 1200 and 4000 wait a minute or so to scan the IDE bus but I don't think this is whats happening.

It is a mystery card. I bought about 2 truck loads of stuff from a studio in West Hollywood last year (for a song, too). This is one of the items. :)

I have another accelerator I am going to try. This way I can eliminate the Amiga as the culprit.
