Tried my A1200 again, I still can's move up and down with the mouse so Amiga-up and Amiga-down has to do.
Anyway, I have a 50MHz 030 Apollo card with extra RAM. The extra memory wasn't showing up so I decided to investigate. Turns out there was none plugged into it! I grabbed some plugged it in and ..it didn't show up, so I tried some different Simms and they didn't work either.
Don't know what's going on there but there is one component that looks like it's expanding, my guess is it's a battery but it hasn't done any damage yet - or has it??
The real purpose of my experiment however was to try and get a Jaz drive (1GB removable) working.
I tried to connect it up but it's not playing ball at all. I've tried various settings but it's just not showing up. Same thing on my PC.
I also have another Jaz drive I got the other day but it's acting the same, it just does not show up.
Bizarrely the infamously dubious Zip drive ...worked first time.
Are the Jaz and Apollo 030s known for these types of problems ...or is it just old age?
