Have you plugged the SIMM in the flat connector, not the angled one, I find
you gotta have the simm in that slot to make it work. But I guess your not
stupid to not have already tried that :-/

This is what is happening to my mates at the moment, it just stopped
working! No BVision either :/ weird!

Oh, I was gonna suggest that. How about - have you got the latest Ateo
start patch thing?
>Expansion Board Diagnostics shows no boards...
This seems to have always been the same with my mates PPC040, some bloke
(author of mmu.library) said it is because Phase5 do non standard autoconfig
stuff. But my PPC060 works perfect and shows up :) luverly. But no good
for you.

Hmmm, well this would point to a faulty board then, or your just full of
static and knackered it?! The normal desktop machine had a weedy PSU IIRC,
that could well duf you up, especially wiht an 040 on board.
