Yep, as everyone has pointed out, it's a kickstart ROM switcher.  Looks like the one I have in my A500.  Made by ICD (I think) and it's an Auto changer, you just hold down Ctrl-Amiga-Amiga for 5 seconds, you will hear a beep, let go and the Amiga boots to the other ROM.  There is a Jumper on board which allows you to define the default ROM you would like to boot from.  There is also a flylead with IC pin clip attached, which has to go to a Gary pin for some required signal (Reset I think).
If you have removed that device, have you been testing the machine with it plugged in correctly?  You do have something in the ROM socket, right?   I can probably find the settings for you if you'd like. :-)

BTW, if it was mine, I'd keep it and remove the 2.05 ROM and replace it with a 3.1.  That way you can still have 1.3 easily if you need it to play that old classic game you liked  :-D  :lol:

EDIT:::  YAY, just got promoted to technoid  :-D

There you go I just changed it.

I have never actually tried to play the game all the way through with WHDload.  Do you know if the current version allows you to complete it?  I just had a play on my Laptop in WinUAE and it didn't look real good.  Usually I boot that one up in 1.3 on a real Amiga and play on that :-)
However I would love to see a good WHDLoad version.
Thanks for the info Angus
