A3640 V3.0 refuses to run speed test on SysInfo V3.24 ?!
« on: December 24, 2005, 01:41:50 PM »
There is a problem that I can not solve or don´t have enough experience to fix it :

When I run SysInfo v3.24, there is no Speed showing for the CPU nor is there info alongside the FPU. The Amiga crashes just as it is about to list the final scores.However, if I use a CSMKII 060/50 or any of the three different C= 030/6882 cards I have, SysInfo always shows the CPU/FPU info before you run the speed test. This card doesn't!!! When Sysinfo is launched, it should automatically tell you what CPU/FPU is in the Amiga. As I have said, despite doing a fresh Install of the OS, the 040 Card will NOT show the CPU/FPU details. However, if i use ANY of my other cards, the CPU/FPU info always shows. I have tried several versions of the 040 Library & they all do the same thing. SysInfo Crashes just before it lists its final scores. It gets as far as showing comparative speeds against other Amiga Models but crashes with Guru Meditation just as its about to show the Mips/Flops results.

The question is whether the card is faulty or not. Any intelligent answer might be welcome. Other non intelligent answers which are useful are of course also welcome  :lol:

Is there any reason why it would crash on an V3.0 and not on an V3.1 A3640 ???  :-?

No, the one that causes the crash is a V3.0, the one that is not supposed to work in an A3000. SysInfo does run with the card but when you want to do a speed test then it crashes with a Guru  :-o

Okay, after a lot of confusement it seems to be that the crashing A3640 is a V3.1 and not a V3.0 as I first thought  :lol: Guess I have too much red wine in my blook  :pint: But still I would like to know why it crashes when you want to know how fast it is  :-?

The truth is that this V3.1 is a card that I sold to Kin-Hell. I just asked him to run Showconfig and/or SysSpeed V2.6 ...

If I knew it was a V3.2 then I still would have sold it for the same price  :lol: Sorry for all the confusion but I really didn´t want to cause that much commotion  :-) Happy to hear you have now got a full 040  :lol: But be careful with overclocking faster than a 66 Mhz crystal as I have read the problem may not be the processor but the A3640 itself ...
