I have found out which is the problem!!! :(((
I wrote an email to Elbox and this is the answer:
"
  This is a problem of noise on the A1200 reset signal.

  Voodoo 5 should always start with ProductID: 9.
  Sometimes it starts with ProductID: 7, which is not correct.

  This problem has been solved in the SX and TX models, where
  we have added buffering of the A1200 reset signal.
"
Anybody have an idea on what I could do (without changing the busboard)?
A500 +A600 +A1000 +A1200 +CDTV

Get rid of the Voodoo5.

The 2nd core isn't even used.
The software support is lacking (to put it politely).

My advice: keep it because of the low heat dissipation. Otherwise Voodoo3 is better.
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.
