Thanks for your quick response. I tried installing the 3.1 with the jumper, then without the jumper, then this way, and then that way. All to no avail. I gave up and brought it to my nearest Amiga Dealer (is that now an oxymoron?). He had no luck either. Any other suggestions?

I can't imagine what's wrong with your system! That's really strange. I use Kick 2.04 ROM in an Rev. 6a A500 without the jumpercable. Does anyone here know if installing the ROM with the jumper could destroy the ROM (assuming that it is installed in a system which does not need the jumper). Have You any special internal Hardware installed? Like a turbocard, a graphiccard or deinterlacecard (in the Denise-socket). cya Jochen Anteberger from Neuburg a.d.

The jumper seems to cause no harm if installed when it's not needed. The instructions that came with my 2000 upgrade for 3.1 (same chip as for the 500, I believe) were confusing. So I tried it with the jumper first; that didn't work, so off came the jumper and everything worked just fine. –Jim
