I have ZIV and MediatorZIV with b1260 etc. It has worked fine and I've used many cards in it. At the moment I have Voodoo3 2000, Realtek 10/100 network card, Terratec tv-card and Spider II USB -card in PCI bus and Delfina Lite in Zorro slot. I also have used CV64/3D, MultiFaceCard3 and Hydra Amiganet 1.1 (compatibility fixed) in Zorro bus. Two gfx cards worked also fine together for dual monitor setup (CV3D&V3)... or actually triple as I had TV in RGB port ;)

Only problem was with my MicroniK (Classic, metal) tower as it didn't have backplanes low enough. There wasn't holes for two lowest PCI slot. I used one of them anyway by using network card there and bringing the cable from other hole :) But after getting the USB card I used little bit metal saw and made room for everything. There's a pics of whole mess: http://jpv.wmhost.com/jpv_computers/2006_a1200_cablescards.jpg http://jpv.wmhost.com/jpv_computers/2006_a1200_insidecloseup.jpg

Why would there be? I haven't used much whdload games, but those couple I've tried have worked. Of course you need AGA output for those, but I guess that's not the question :) BTW. TV-card can be used like "poor man's" scandoubler. You can put cable between Amiga's composite out and TV-card's video in and then watch PAL-modes through TV-software. It even works with non-multitasking stuff like whdload games.
