Trumpcard 2000
« on: April 05, 2004, 08:35:59 PM »

I am having a little trouble with a Trumpcard 2000 of mine... Electrically it seems to work, but I cant get a drive to function with it... I need drivers for it, but cant seem to find them anywhere... Can anyone help me with this?

You can look after drivers for the Trumpcard Grandslam. They will work also with the Trumpcard 2000

If you don't find them I look in my drivers collection. But that can last at least some days.

Here's the one you want!


That's the one you want. I used to have one of those and I hated it, 'cos it was proprietary. Still, for what it was, it's not a bad controller.


Best of luck, Mate!

Well, I have tried that driver, and everyone keeps telling me thats the one I should use, but that one is really for the Trumpcard 500 AT... I tried changing some settings and stuff, but with no luck...

The Trumpcard 500 IS a Trumpcard 2000, but in an external box. That's one of the things I loved about it, 'cos it was basically a ZorroII expansion. What exactly is it doing??? If you give me a little more information, I might be able to help you out some more.

Not quite correct... There is a Trumpcard 500 "AT" as well, which is a totally different board for the A500, with SIMM sockets and an IDE interface, instead of SCSI, and the .dms in the link you provided is for this one...

When I start up the program I get an error message "Unable to find Trumpcard 500 AT" ( Notice th "AT" ) and the program shuts down. If I fool around a little with the settings, the program doesnt display the error message and starts up, but it doesnt display the hard drive connected to the controller...

I´m not quite sure how to use hdtoolbox together with this device...

The developers of the card are friends of mine. I have not spoken to them in a long time as we have not kept in touch, but I will try to track them down and see if they still have the drivers for your Trumpcard.

Thanks, but it´s ok... I got the card running without drivers... I moved it to another slot, and suddenly it autobooted of the disk attached to it, and HDToolbox recognized the card... :)
