A1200 G-REX problems
« on: July 13, 2006, 09:44:25 PM »
Hello,

I got a G-REX for my A1200. Here my hardware:

- A1200 Rev.1D4, Kick3.1
- BPPC 68040/175, boardtype 2
- Voodoo3 3000, Terractec soundcard
- HD and CDROM on standard IDE-port
- Elbox Winner Tower

I flashed the BPPC with the update from G-REX driver CD (V1.3). In the config menu of the BPPC the Voodoo3 is recognized. I choose 31 KHz Monitor in the System Setup but there is no output on the Voodoo. After installation of OS39 and CybergraphX4 with latest update for G-REX the system hangs when I choose a screenmode for the Voodoo. PCIScan shows from time to times as class for the Voodoo "Mass Storage Controller" and not "Display Controller". This also happens in the BPPC PCI menu.

So I flashed the BPPC with the latest update from grex.amigaworld.de. After that the Amiga is in a reboot loop. I neither get into the early startup menu nor into the setup menu of the BPPC.

I have tested another Voodoo3 which works with a mediator board -> same results.

Does anybody knows about these problems ?

Regards

Hi,

thanks for your answer.

1.: it has 200W and more than 4.86v
2.: what do you mean with "modify" ? I didn't modify anything
3.: yes
4.: yes, boardtype from aminet says revision 2
5.: I tried but same result

Hi,

I did as supposed (new flash) but with the same result in the end.

The Voodoo works together with a Mediator so it should work with the G-REX.

I have plugged power to the G-REX.

After all I think x56h34 is right. The G-REX is defective. I'm searching for a logic board. What's the price for such a piece of hardware ?

Regards
