GVP G-Force 030, firmware question.

[barney]

Hello, I have a GVP G-Force 030 accelerator for my Amiga 2000.  I am not sure what version firmware it has since the ROM doesn't have a sticker on it.  

My question is, is there a way within the Amiga OS, to see what firmware version I am running.  I tried using Sysinfo, but I didn't find any firmware versions.

Thanks.

There is only one problem.  I have two GVP SCSI cards in my Amiga 2000.  The first one is a GVP G-Force 030 accelerator/scsi which I use with my SCSI HD and CDROM.  The other GVP card is the 2000 HC+8, which I use strictly as a Ram expansion (nothing connected to the SCSI connector).

When I type "Version gvpscsi.device", how do I know which device it is describing?  My GVP 2000 HC+8 does in fact have the version 4.15 ROM Version but the G-Force 030 I have no idea.

Thanks.

I ran that command in shell and it worked fine.  I just think that it was referring to my GVP 2000 HC+8, which I already know has the most recent ROM (4.15).  I am trying to see what version my GVP/sCSI accelerator has.  

I do have another idea.  Maybe the startup disk for the GVP/SCSI card will have an app that will give me this information.

Thanks.

My current configuration now is I am runnining my hard drive and CDrom from my GVP G-force scsi/accelerator card.  My 2000 2000 HC+8 is only used as a RAM card and I have the autoboot jumper disabled.  So are you saying that I can remove the ROM from the 2000 HC+8 and put it in my GVP accelerator/SCSI card?  Thanks.

Rkauer, is the 2000 HC+8 really faster than the GVP SCSI/ACCelerator?  I get approx 2000 - 2200 kb/s with my GVP accelerator but I need to check and see what I get on my 2000 HC+8.  

Isn't it also true that the memory on my accelerator is much faster than my 2000 HC+8 memory?  Would I be better off just removing it and use only my accelerator?

Thanks.
