A1200, doesnt have slow ram. It just has 2MB Chip.
So I would expect to see 0MB for both Fast and Slow.

How are you runing this software / games. Workbench?
What Rom are you using?

In most cases I am loading via floppy drive.  I bought some updated Kickstart 3.2.2 roms from Sordan on Ebay as I thought this would solve the problem but still it persists.  Previously I was running 3.0.

Does this help?

Need more info, what are exact issues.
As it could just be it wasnt ment to run on AGA / newer roms, hence issues.

What happens if you go into Early Startup and disable caches. Then try again.

I take it your trying all this without  PiSTORM32?

Sorry OP, I had to split the topic, as it was out of control.

The correct operation for PiSTORM, is https://forum.amiga.org/index.php?topic=76907.msg861463#msg861463

Ignore me I have just worked out to disable cache.  Unfortunately it doesnt solve the problem.

As myself and others have asked, are these tests being done without the Pi. As if your having same issue, then it is not likely to be anything related to PiSTORM.
An example of a 500 floppy game that glitches on an A1200, is Dune (the original adventure).

You need do some tests with no Pistorm connected and then with it connected. Mschulz is correct though, best way to run games, is via WHDLoad (+WHDLoad wrapper).
If your able to get stuff running fine via vanilla setup, you could try what was mentioned. Adding a disable function, so your able to disable PiSTORM without removing it.

I know its a lot of information to take in and can get confusing.
