Gvp a3001
« on: May 27, 2014, 09:23:16 AM »
Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has any experience of using the GVP A3001 Amiga 2000 accelerator. I've got a Rev 8 board with the RAM32 memory board attached. Does anyone know if you need to use an install disk to be able to see more than the first 4MB of RAM?

I can see 4MB in the outut of show config but no more, and I'm sure I've seen a screenshot somewhere of someones machine showing the config with 4MB of fast RAM on one line and the additional 12MB on another.

Any advice would be great as I don't have an install disk to check, thanks.

You installed four more SIMMs for 8MB?  And  you moved the correct jumper to see that extra memory?  Also, were those SIMMs Nibble Mode?  If not, it will not work...

see here for more info!
