- Hi,
-
- I have used a 25 MHz 386 Bridgeboard, with 1Mb RAM, in a 4000/030 for the
- past 2 years. Its fitted with its own 3 1/2 FD, a 120Mb HD, a VGA card and
- an I/O card with its own mouse. I have run all kinds of MSDOS programs
- without any problems, plus the ADOS and MSDOS bridge worked perfectly.
-
- Having decided to have a go with Windows 3.1, I recently installed an extra
- 2 Mb of ZIP RAM (1M X 4), making 3Mb in total, but because I could get only
- 70ns ZIPS the only way I could get the Bridgeboard to recognise the extra
- memory was to set DRAM Wait States to '1', and Page Mode to 'Disabled'.
- However, it seems the side effect of doing this, is that when the card
- boots I get "No Janus Memory Structure found!". Following the boot,
- Windows boots up OK, but on some occasions there is no response from the
- keyboard. Also, of course, aread, awrite and atime do not work.
-
- I would appreciate some help on this. Obviously there is some sort of
- addressing conflict, but I am not at all experienced with the Amiga/MSDOS
- interface.
-
- Thanks in anticipation
