I just ordered one of these A1000 adapters for the ECS Indivision from AmigaKit, and now you are saying that it does not fit???

Since I also live in the lands of NTSC and I think that all of my A1000's have daughter-boards in them, this would be a problem for me as well.  I wonder why no one else has reported this on any forums and there is no mention of it from Individual Computers, or warning on the AmigaKit site?

I was not even aware that there were/are any A1000 models that came without the daughter-boards.

We can hope I'll be shot to pieces and there is no problem. That's what I'm hoping for. I asked AmigaKit if they had any examples, images of this configuration, no is what they responded. I also wrote Jens today. Then I made the video.

To me, the adapter board could have been made to work over the Denise just as easily, see Jeff's work with an ICD board:

I have read and re-read the Indivision ECS directions and it says nothing about the Paula chip. Please check again because I am sure the adapter goes in the Denise socket "because the power supply is in the way".


AmigaKit has removed their instructions page... that was there yesterday:
http://www.amigakit.co.uk/support/indivision-ecs-a1000.php

Remember we are talking about the Adapter board instruction for A1000, not the Indivision itself.

On the A500, A2000, A3000 and CDTV the IndivisionECS goes where the Denise chip sits. Obviously AmigaKit have some leftover pin/formfactor-compatible paula adapters for some other hardware that they are selling for use with the IndivisionECS in A1000. As long as the adapter is pin for pin transferred over there should be no problem in using it and just ignore the "Paula" socket on the adapter. The adapter is just to move the IndivisionECS out of the way of the A1000 PSU.


The only thing that is obvious to me is that there is an issue. I uncovered it and hope to get a response from somebody. Jens / AmigaKit...

Yes, thanks for bringing this problem to the attention of all of us and AmigaKit & Individual Computers.  Too many forum members like to offer advice for problems they do not have direct experience with, or knowledge about.  I understand that they are only trying to help, but could actually end up hurting the situation with incorrect advice.


Thanks AmigaDave, I tend to agree. We'll figure something out. I'll study the pinouts and the board some tonight

We also discovered I need to use voice enhancement technology for my next video. Maybe a vocoder...:lol:

Ok, I fix it. Ugly but it doesn't bother me.
