Pete,
It's possible that your problem may be the need to insert TWO lines in
your startup AFTER running Binddrivers. Add RUN PCReset TWICE in the startup.
Another possibility is to check that you enabled the IDE controller. The board
normally ships with the IDE jumper set to OFF. A third possibility is that you
have a board with a particular controller chip that doesn't work in some
machines. If this is the card that EMC sells made by Oak, there are some
boards with a controller chip that apparently doesn't work in some Amigas. I
happen to have two of them that work fine, even tho they have the chip that
doesn't work most of the time. There is a different version of the chip on
some boards which works fine. If you bought the board from EMC you should call
Dave about it. He is aware of the problem.
