I am afraid that I have got SuperBuster9 ...  is this time to get depressed


Dont worry the buster is only for Zorro cards, not PCI. The MEdiator will handle all that for you. I used my A3000 with a Buster 7 and a Mediator for a long time. I only just put a Buster 11 in and only because I ot it free. You will love using the Mediator. It makes things so noce in your Amiga!!!

One thing to remember! A lot of people have lockup problems with 10/100 speed Ethernet cards. I figured out the problem at last on mine. I just used MiamiDx and then connected my Amiga and cable modem to a router. I went into the router settings and made the DHCP server lease settings never expire. I havent had a lockup since.

So can someone confirm the answer to the buster question


Once again a Mediator will work just fine on the older buster chips. I used mine on a Rev 7 buster for two years. The buster is only a Zorro card issue and then only on a few ZIII cards.

The Elbox haters can do what they like, but in the end it all boils down to the fact that the Mediator is by far the best PCI solution for Amiga! I would never ger rid of mine!!! the only think I would like to see more of is 3rd party drivers for it. At least a IDE controller and ,aybe some SCSI cards too would be a welcomed adition to the cards we can use now.

Do you happen to have pics of the case?

I posted a pic of the inside of my A3000 Mirage case all set up here not to long ago. I have more if anyone is interested? I'll post them to the archive.
