#A1000/Rejuv. Expansion

#64009From: PAUL ZAGERJul 28, 1992 8:55 PM

Has anyone tried adding a SCSI/Ram card to a rejuvinated 1000 ? I now have two different card/combinations from ALF trying to run from an 86pin to 100 pin adapter off the bus. I can run the memory alone or I can run the SCSI alone, but when I try to run them both, it always configures the memory (2megs) but loses the SCSI. Any ideas why I can't get both ? Running in a A1000 with 2 meg Rejuvinator, DKB switch start, booting under 2.04. Both SCSI cards are ALF. Running a Quantum 105LPS. HELP !!!!

Is the DKB board the Kwikstart or the Multistart that goes in the 500/2000? I have got a Starboard 2 and an Supra SCSI on my rejuvenated 1000 and it works fine. Richard

THe DKB Board is the MULTISTART for the 500/2000. My problem seems to be with the memory existing on the same board as the SCSI.

Paul, I succesfully used a Xetec HD interface withe the Rejuvenator.

Does your XETEC have any fast memory on it ? I can get a SCSI board to work fine alone, but not with memory expansion on the bus connector.

Paul, I had Fast RAM and the HD controller on the bus. Worked fine…

Denny, Did you install either the 68010 or the 68HC000 like Expert Services suggested in the isntallation. I've run the extra leads on the bottom of the mother board, but didn't change chips. Expert services blames the mother board. Prespect blames the Rejuvinator. And I'n about to shoot my 1000 to end everybody's misery ! Thanks for the replies. Paul

Paul, Actually, I had an AdSpeed in the 68000 socket… Sorry.

I have an AdSpeed stacked on top of a Spirit board. Works for most programs. Richard

Just got through putting in more ground wire runs and a 5Kpull up resistor decribed in Amiga world a while back. It didn't do a thing. I still have to choose the memory on th emulti-funciton card, or go back to my SCSI only card. I have a 68010 on the way. If that doesn't work, I give up. Prespect Technics says they have some memory manager that will let me use part of the hard drive as RAM. Slow, I suppose. But better than nothing.
