Indivision AGA Flicker Fixer/Scandoubler

I'll add my feedback as well ...

First off, GREAT bit of kit. Makes a big difference to the display.

Cons for me are ...

PC Key 1200. Adaptor catches the top of the indivision so it cant seat properly. Push the PC Key 1200 too much and the indi pops off.

Fast ATA MKIII. A BVision rom socket kit is needed to raise the Fast ATA so that the indivision can sit underneath it. If you then have a mediator, it cant seat properly because of the now raised Fast ATA. If you force it all in, its far too tight and bulges upwards in the middle of the mediator and probably downwards on the miggy board)(I darent even switch it on). Also, the mediator then sits on top of the now uneven PC Key adaptor. Screw a PCI card down and this pushs the PC Key down wich in turn looses the Indivision.

I think the above is only a PCB size / shape issue. Maybe it'll be sorted in Indivision 2

Oh, and yes the VGA mount would have been useful.

Hope Jens doesnt take this as critism, I love what the indi does but addressing the above will make it even better.

Regarding the PCKEY 1200.

It is possible to cut it to fit over the Indivision. There is only one track near the area that you need to avoid cutting.

Nice job, might give it a go this weekend and no doubt be ordered a new one on Monday  :-P

Anyone else suffering the same problems? How well should the Indivision hold on to Lisa? I expected it would hold on tightly, but this is definitely not so.

Seems to depend on the board. I have two 1200 boards, one with a CBM Lisa and one with a HP. The HP one fits terribly. In fact it no longer stays on and I now have boot problems with it (blue screen) even when its not fitted.

utrageous. If this thing broke your motherboard, then not only do you deserve your money back, but you also deserve an explanation as to why this thing wasn't tested with the HP Lisa.

    Hell, they should also pay to fix/replace your motherboard.

I'm keeping in mind its a 16 year old motherboard so stuff happens. Me and Jiffy might have just been unlucky. I'll await to see if anyone else has problems.

Does the Lisa chip version depend on the board revision? My board is 2B but I didn't check the chip - and I dare not try to pry the Indivision out. Mine seems to old pretty snuggly but I've also experienced occasional blackouts usually, when there is stuff over the Indivision.

I dont know if the board revision dictates the lisa version but for info my 2B board is a HP Lisa and the 1D4 is a CBM one.

Can the Indivision be held onto the HP chip using a thin piece of double-sided tape?

Depends on the strength of the tape. I did think ahout a bit of 3M tape but dont want to put something on that could cause problems if I need to remove it.
