A1230/IV and PCMCIA

[xaccrocheur]

Hi

I own one of the most recent accell boards (Phase5 Blizzard 1230/IV w/ 8Mb RAM (70ns I'd say, maybe that's the PB ?)) and I have yet to see *any* PCMCIA thing working alongside. I got two examples : Both my C= PCMCIA HD and a friend's Squirell's (1st simple version) *refuse* to work unless I disable the Blizzard board (alt+F2 IIRC). Then back to 020/2Megs . It is, I must say, a real pain.

This, as I notice that *a lot* of drivers have been released for laptop PC's PCMCIA NICs, really er.. annoys me:roll:. Is there a slight chance for my Blizzard to stop blocking my PCMCIA port ? Sometimes I'm suspecting the PSU (original 25W one) to be the culprit, as it makes sense that W/ The Blizzard attached, it cannot deliver enough for any PCMCIA usage..?

Thanks for your help anyway, and for coping w/ my english. I'd really like one of those PCMCIA NICs..

Another possibility could be the A1200 PCMCIA reset bug. You could give CardReset (readme) a try.

Aha ! I was hoping for something like that. Thanks for the clue.

What really would reassure me, would be to read that any member is hapilly using a 1230/IV along with a PCMCIA Network card. In witch case I'd look very suspiciously at my RAM. Is 60ns EDO easy to find now ?
