Okay, to start with, the Blizzard is not mine but from a friend that I want to help out. It´s about a Blizzard PPC 210 Mhz (original) and a 060 at 50 Mhz with the latest firmware, DCE Revision 2 board. Problem is that the card refuses to boot into Workbench. Halfway the loading it freezes and the green light starts to flash. This happens every time again. So we started to boot "with no startup sequence". This worked and after LoadWB we got into Workbench. But after opening a program it freezes again. We tried with floppy only, so no harddrive, just a normal standard Workbench 3.1 floppy (original), but the same problem occurs. We tried to remove the Ram but the problem was not removed. We tried the heavy A500 power supply, also a Goliath power supply, also inside a Micronik tower, but no result, even when using an A500 power supply to the A1200 and a pc power supply for the coolers, so power supply is not the problem.
The card hasn´t got its original coolers but far better ones so heat can´t be the problem.
We have tried at least five different modules of different Mb´s but no result, so the memory module is also not the problem.
We tried, using Escape to get into the Blizzard PPC menu, to reduce the speed of the Ram to 70 ns, but no result, so Ram speeds can also not be the problem.
We tried three A1200 boards with different revisions, so this can also not be the problem.
We tried with and without harddrive connected, with and without internal floppy connected, and even with only an external floppy, so this can also not be the problem.
Phil has flashed the card with the file from the G-Rex site, so this can also not be the problem.
We tried on un-expanded A1200´s, so no Zorro or Mediator or clockport cards, so this can also not be the problem.
So we are a bit running out of bright ideas. Has anyone got a better suggestion ?? Would be greatly appreaciated !!!!! :-)
