Machine not booting with Blizzard 1220/4
« on: November 09, 2008, 09:30:51 AM »
I've got a Blizzard 1220/4 which seems to stop the A1200 from booting. With another accelerator installed (or no accelerator) it works fine, but when I plug in the 1220 the hard disk doesn't spin up and the machine just sticks on a black screen. I can't even get to the early startup screen. Any ideas?

I have exactly the same card with the same problem!
I removed the coin battery, but still no luck :-(

Hmm, so either a coincidence that neither of our cards work or maybe an incompatibility. I have tried mine in two different A1200s, one which is really old and also my NOS A1200. I don't know what motherboard revisions they contain. Are there any known issues with these cards?
