Hi guys,
 
i need a little more help with my s:start up. I have edited s:start up by inputting C:ACATune..etc command line into the first line of my s:startup and my aca1230 card is recognised fine once wb loads..problem is wb doesn't load from cold start..it starts up but the screen goes blank (as if going into a reset mode) and then the system hangs on black screen. So i then do a soft reset and it works normally with ACA card recognised. Anyone know what is happening here? FYI my s:startup is very standard apart from the ACATune line i inserted at the beginning.
 
Another question! My PCMCIA port recognises my 2mb pcmcia ram card but no longer recognises my PCMCIA CF adaptor :cry:
 
Why is my 1200 so tempermental :smack:

There's a significant improvement in the speed of the 1200 :) But i haven't had as much time to play WHDLoad because of other committments ;)
 
Do you think the problem could be the jumper on the accelerator board, ie. now that i am kicking to a 3.1 rom i should now remove the jumper?:confused:

Runequester, why would you need to do the soft reboot if you have the 3.1 roms already installed ? :)
