- I recently got a Blizzard Board, but have been having some problems with it.
- First off, my configuration:
-
- A500 512K chip, A501 (fastram), External floppy, Spartan HD controller
- Blizzard board (512K shadow), 4x256K chips (1 meg total), 4x1Meg chips (4 megs)
- ADos 2.1
-
- I have one of the newer A500 power supplies that put out 4.3 amps
-
- Problem:
-
- The machine Gurus. It comes up with software
- error # 8000 0003 or 0004. It happens at all different times. Figuring that it's a
- power problem, I've disconnected the A501 and the external floppy.
-
- Could it be that I'm really running out of power? Or could it have something
- to do with the fact that I only have the 512K agnus? Do 4x1meg chips use up
- more power than 4x256K chips?
-
- The numbers on the chips are:
-
- 256K - Goldstar GM71C4256A-70
- 1 Meg - KM44C1000AP-7
-
- The original owner says that he had in the 1 meg chips lying around and
- installed them afterward (it originally had the 4 megs.) No matter what config
- of memory I set up, it crashes the system and I'm getting really frustrated
- with it.
-
- Please help me! I need to get this thing working soon or else I'm gonna send
- it back and cancel my check! I need my computer for school work, but it's not
- very reliable if it's gonna crash all the time on me!
-
- HELP!
-
- Thanks,
- Mike Kopack
