Re: BPPC FAQ SECTION
« on: June 26, 2006, 07:42:40 PM »
Hello,

I'm a BPPC n00b and I'm also having trouble getting my board to work properly (http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=23098),  so for people like me this would be great. Does anyone know if there is a BPPC based faq or any pages giving info on setting up a Revision 0 BPPC ?

Also, while all you PPC experts are reading this! :-) could someone please advice me if you can still experience power supply problems with the Mediator SX busboard? I have a feeling my problem might be to do with poor power supply to the PPC card...however the Mediator SX has a "pass through" adaptor bridging my PPC card to the Mediator busboard, with the ATX power connector plugged directly into this adaptor...shouldnt that mean my PPC is getting enough power??? Or does someone still think I need to try the Floppy power connector and/or PPC fan power connector tricks?

Is it safe to feed these connectors with +5v on a Mediator SX setup?? Is it a good idea to feed both the BPPC fan power connector *AND* floppy power connector with +5v ? Or would I overload the card by boosting both power tracks??
