A1200 1D.1 Board and Scandy SD Issue
« on: September 15, 2007, 09:58:45 AM »
Hi,

I recently purchased a Micronik Scandy internal SD for my second miggy (1D.1). My first one (1D.4) already has a DCE SD installed.

When I installed the Scandy in the 1D.1 machine, I managed to get a picture, but it was extremely dark, couldn't make out text unless it was highlighted, very dark icons etc.

So in the interests of science :) I swapped the SD and the Scandy works in the 1D.4 board (also the DCE works in the 1D.1 board).

While this means I have a solution, its not the one I want, as the DCE fits better in the 1D.4 board with all the other stuff I have attached.

Does anyone know if there are any 1D.1 fixes that would solve this or anything else I could try to get the Scandy working on the 1D.1 board?

And I guess lastly, anyone have a 1D.4 board they want to get rid of?

edit: one more question: which is the best / most stable revision to get?

Hi,

Thanks I had a look. The fixes seem to be pretty revision 2B specific. (although I can't get to the page to check right now :( )

There is definitely something wrong with this board. Without the SD, using a 23-9 pin converter and in mode displayable by my monitor, the screen displays with about an inch of the right hand side cut off!

Strange...

I found a cheap 1d.4 revision board on eBay and have ordered it as a replacement. I'll get by without the rightmost inch of the screen for now.
