- I'm not familiar with the Supra Drive, but there's no reason it shouldn't
- work if hooked-up properly. I'm using an A1000, and as I recall, it should
- be connected rightside-up but backwards. Pretty sure about this, but I've
- never actually connected a peripheral this way. It may very well cover the
- second joystick port.
-
- Assuming you have it connected correctly, there was also a design problem
- with the 1000's expansion bus which may still interfere with operation.
- At the minimum, a fix would involve soldering extra grounds wires to four
- pal chips on the daughter board. I can email/snail mail you the plans, but
- one thing at a time....
