#Memory HELP!

Jay, I got same indications with the BBBE. Put the cards in another Amiga and
they were faultless. All my apparent hardware trouble was apparently caused by
garbage on the bus. If you can try the 2052 in another Amiga, dothat before you
start pulling chips.
Might add that my A500 is located in an area of very high RFI and microwave
transmissions (just my luck to be nextdoor to the CIA), but pullingg the
terminator pack seems to have worked. Rob.
Rob, I don't believe my problem could be caused by the terminating resistor,
but I'm willing to try anything! (except desoldering chips to find the bad
one:) so I'll try it now and let you know. The problems with the HD and the
gurus and such seem to be caused by that problem in address 002019A2, I do get
the same problems (except the HD one) with the interface removed from the
pass-thru, so that would lead me to believe that it's not a bus conflict
problem, just a flaky chip (yes, the one at address 002019A2!) Now, if I could
only find out which chip!!! (or is that chip-which?) Good idea, tho, to test it
in another machine, I'll try that next.
So what's it like to live next to the CIA? With all those high-level
signals it's a wonder that your machine works at all! I could just picture some
agent with some high-tech monitoring equipment picking up Dragon's Lair from
your machine and screaming "swing your sword, Dirk, swing it!"
