Where do you get those sockets?! I have that exact problem at the moment. I was thinking that a riser would do the job but obviously haven't ordered a set yet.

Ok I got it to work...

You need to put the FastATA on 4 ROM sockets 2x2 and you'll need to insulate the Indy to keep it from shorting against the FastATA.

For best result you'll need to remove the excess from the through-hole soldering on the FastATA. I used a dremel tool with a little grinding wheel which was a mistake because I ruined a trace and had to fix it with my crappy soldering skills.

I could not get the RF shielding to fit back on :)

HD720 looks great!

EDIT:

oops. that should read FastATA MK IV in the topic, sorry :)

The Indivision Mk2 has the best output I've seen to date (DVI) of any non-graphics board display. Stunningly sharp. I also see none of the sync issues I have with the Mk1.

My problem, however, is that my ACA1231 suddenly stopped working when I hooked up the Mk2. So I get a good display or RAM and a fast CPU/MMU, but not both. That and until I get risers myself I lost my Fast ATA Mk4
