Hi,

I've just had a look inside my A500+. The wire with the adapter goes to the odd CIA (on the left). It's been working for 5 years now so I think it's correct :)

Hi,

The adapter goes into the CIA socket, with the wire at the lower left corner. Then the CIA goes on top.

Strange - I only have one wire (it's orange). This goes from the right pin of the connector labeled INT 2 MOBO to the adapter on the CIA. I don't know if maybe you have a different revision of the board or something?

Picture of the wire on my board here: http://twiglet.0catch.com/images/a530.jpg . Sorry for poor quality.

The link should work if you type the URL in - they don't seem to like hotlinking.

There are two pins on my card but only the right one is connected to anything.

There's about 2mm clearance between the card and the CIA on my setup. Make sure the board is seated well in the CPU socket and there's no bent pins or anything.

Hope you can get this card working - gave my A500 a new lease of life!
