A3640 questions

[icbrkr]

Looks like it was reworked - I took a look at the solder points and a chip was replaced and the caps were put back in the correct way.  However, one cap wasn't soldered down properly so it's not connected.  I'm sending it back :/

@icbrkr:

It should work even if a cap is removed. Have you tripplechecked that the motherboard jumpers are correctly set for the A3640?

Also - does this snippet from www.amiga-hardware.com hold true for your A3000?

The other thing to consider is the version of Kickstart your A3000 uses. If it contains Kickstart 1.4, the pre-boot Kickstart which loads a Kickstart image from disk you cannot use this accelerator, regardless of what version of Kickstart it eventually boots. If your A3000 uses Kickstart 2.04 then you can use this accelerator providing that you have a Ramsey Chip newer than revision 4 and you aren't using Static Column Fast-RAM. There are no known problems if you use Kickstart 3.1.

I did... I as going by the jumper settings found here:

No matter, if I buy something, I'd like all the parts to be connected and working :/

Aye, I understand that.
