Hello people,
If I am not completely mistaken it is in my believe that zorro is ZORRO no matter what way you turn it.
Even if you put the PIV in a zorro expanded A500....
IT IS STILL ZORRO.
So for a conclution;
If it shows up NOT WORKING...
it is not working no matter what amiga you put it in...
So jimbo, if (hopefully) you have any friends with an A2000. Try it in an A2000 then. just to be sure...
But my guess is, it is dead...
As for the dongle...
amiga-hardware says nothing about the card not working without it...
But they do state that it is intended for the A2000... though, but being zorro II/III autosensing...
(a close friend of mine have an A4000 which he had a PIV, working. But changed it into a cybervision 64/3D (mkII)..
He still has the A4000 and i am nagging him to sell it :-D )
