1200 PCMCIA not working with CF
« on: March 09, 2017, 06:12:55 PM »
Hi, I have 2 Amiga 1200s. One the Amigakit easyadf pcmcia works perfectly in and the other 1200 it does not show the drive. I reinstalled workbench on it fresh and reinstalled the ADAPCMCFL PCMCIA drivers disk but it still doesn't work.
 
 Does anyone have any suggestions for what to look at?

I did try booting their disk and forgot to mention it.  I'll look inside the case for any clues like bent pins tonight.

I do have an 030 card in the trap door of both but I do think they differ in brand.  I will try removing that first tonight also.

Good call, I pulled the 030 and that fixed it.  Looks like a Apollo Turbo 1230LC and I'll have to research the fix.  Thanks!

Thanks Mike, looks like in this thread I may need to get a 4mb stick to replace the 8 and switch the jumper.

Setting the jumper to 4gb with the 8gb simm worked, great advice thanks all!
