I've seen this game on TV shows on virtual reality since last year some time. 
I know that Funland (downtown Toronto) is going to be picking up a few virtual

Well, I don't know about the glove on 'Dactyl Nightmare, but the 'dataglove'
which is predominantly used in high end virtual reality systems goes for
around $11,000 a glove!  The visor is usually around $3-4000 I think for the
lower end color displays.  The game you saw at the ex can be bought as a kit
for $62,000 and includes the 2 amiga 3000's.  Apparently the amiga's have TI
graphics accelerators for doing all the vector polygons.

	That's nice, some people got lucky, some people got screwed, some
people read this group before investing in a flawed product.
	If you live in Canada, you cann't reach the Quantum voice technical
lines. Quantum must believe only US users had problems with the new LPS
series and that is the biggest flaw in their drive. No way of getting to
them for help if you aren't in certain areas, correction, a few states also
don't have access to 1-900 pay for service lines. If you sell a produt at
least make it possible to get help or don't sell it outside your area.
	The LPS120( smaller brother of the 240) is also a horror story for
some. Try waiting 7-8 weeks for a supposed upgrade after a couple of weeks
of trying to get support, then tell me how beautifull the LPS is. If beauty
is big fast drive that doesn't work, then I also bought a damm good drive,
but in reality it's dammed drive.

Help!  I seem to be having a problem with my AMy 3000, which I am convinced
is hardware related.  Here is the situation:

Both demos of the game Fighter Duel and Fighter Duel Professional refuse to
run on my machine.  I have booted with a "bare" workbench disk, to
eliminate any possibilities with background programs interference.  I have
been told that a bad Agnus may be the problem.

Setup:    Amiga 3000
          16mhz
          6 Megs ram (4 fast, 2 chip)
          120M Quantum Hard Disk

I realize that the reasons for my suspicion are vague, yet I am bothered by
it.  Has anyone else had similar problems?

This could well be a FAQ (but I *really* hope not).

I got a VXL-30/25 in January this year, expecting to be able to add a VXL-32 
to it by March. Since the time of purchase I've been checking with my local
dealer every month for prices/availability etc.

(I also retuned the warranty card to MicroBotics, but have heard nothing from
them either)

Could someone tell me 
i) Does the VXL-32 exist ?
ii) Does anyone in the UK have one ?
iii) Is anyone in the UK selling them at the moment. 
     (who? how much? what sort of deliver time?)

If the answer to any/all of the above is No then

Come on MicroBotics (and ZCL) - I didn't buy a 25MHz processor just to have it

Organization: University of California; Santa Cruz
NNTP-Posting-Host: am.ucsc.edu


I'm attempting to hook up a Syquest 44 mb drive to my Amiga 3000 via the
external SCSI port.  The drive powers up fine, low level formats fine, and
high level formats (AmigaDOS formats) fine.  But when I go to copy something
to the drive, the system locks up while copying.  Where and when it locks up
appears to be random, but it is usually within 20 seconds of copying data to
the drive.

Where is my problem?  I'm guessing that hardware problems could either be a
bad cable or improper termination.  I've tried the drive with and without
terminators -- I get the same result.  But software wise, I'm wondering if the
max transfer rate has anything to do with it, or maybe the interleaving.

I've noticed that the mountlist has an entry for interleaving, but the
AmigaDos 2.0 HDToolBox does not.  Is this normal?  Oh, and also, do Syquest 44
md drives support reselection?  (And what exactly does that mean?)

Any and all help is *greatly* appreciated.  I'd like to get this drive up and
running!  Thanks!

   Hi, I just got my Fatter Agnus and my 2.04 upgrade, so I've been going
   over your instructions and my A500 schematics.  I'm a little puzzled...

   I assume the schematics are wrong about JP2 -- it shows a single
   jumper, optionally connecting U32 and U13 to U5 (Gary).  There's also
   an annotation saying that U32 and JP2 are mutually exclusive.  I would
   guess that when I open the case, I'll find that JP2 actually selects
   whether U32 or U5 drives the U13 pin?  Will I be changing from U32
   driving to U5 driving, or vice versa?

The schematics are wrong.  Neil is right.  I have no idea who is now
driving the pin on U13.

   Also, looking at pin 32 of the connector, it is grounded on the A501
   card.  It appears to be telling Gary that the card is in fact present
   (_EXRAM input to U5) -- with it cut, how will the system determine the
   presence of the A501?  Does it query a memory location?

I don't know, but it works with the pin bent down.

   I haven't found anything on the schematic to say which rev level I have.

Rev 5.  Will somebody please explain the ``Rock Lobster'' label on the
board?  There's some other stuff covered by the QA label -- what???

   By the way, my Fatter Agnus came without installation instructions;
   also, for what it's worth, my ``2.04'' upgrade turned out to be a
   2.05!  Contrary to my dealer's expectations, it only took a couple of
   weeks to come in.

And I've now verified that the one piece of software that Absolutely
Positively Had to Work after the upgrade does:  Where in the World is

           My Quantum 240 MB disk drive is taking just this

   in the interim...

There is a manufacture number that can be used for test purposes when
designing a test board. It is 2011 (dec) or 7DB (hex). It is used
as a "hackers ID" for preliminary boards. We used it here for a 
data acquisition board made not so long ago.
It was fun to see it appear as "Unknown" with Showcards or SysInfo.

Yes, the Amiga Techincal Reference Manual has most of the info you

Hi All!!!!

I got a couple of questions for all you netters out there.

I recently purchased a used A2090 SCSI controller for an old A2000. I haven't
gotten it yet (UPS ground) but I was wondering a few things about it.

I know the controller isn't auto-booting, and that's no big deal. The problem
is is that the machine already has the 2 3.5" and the 5.25" drive bays full.
Can a 3.5" Hd be mounted onto the card to act as a hard card?

Also, how would one Low-Level format this drive? Is there a special software
package involved? 

Does this interface support the FFS? I'd think not, but I'm not sure.

If the drive can't be mounted on the card, are there any other good places
inside the A2000 to put the drive? The A2000 already has an A2088 and a Supra
Ram expander. I was thinking that I could just mount all the cards as far
to the left of the case as possible, and lay the drive down on top of the
remaining expansion slots. Would this be OK? How many drive power cables
are there inside of an A2000  (the machine is not mine) ???

Thanks for the help. Please reply via E-Mail to kopack@lonex.rl.af.mil

There are two things you should try.  Some Amigas (no way to tell which) have
8520s that tend to take a little extra-long to start working after they come
out of reset.  Experimentation with the SetCPU DELAY parameter (takes numbers
from 1 to 100, default is 10) should eliminate this problem, if that is the
problem you're having.  Chip RAM can't be turned on until one of the 8520s is 
working.  Also make sure you're using SetCPU V1.6 -- older versions of SetCPU
don't have any knowledge of 2.0 and may cause trouble.

If you are running 2.04 roms, you can only FASTROM a romfile of disk if it is
the same version.  What you should be trying is SetCPU KICKROM dh0:rom to boot
1.3 of your hard disk using setcpu 1.6.  If this doesn't work, how much chip ram and C00000 ram do you have?  The kickrom option uses c00000 ram or chip ram for the rom image and mmu tables, as it survives a reboot better.  You will need  
1 meg of c0+chip ram as a 1.3 boot will need 256Krom+128ktable and a 2.04 fastrom will need 512krom+128ktable.  Setcpu 1.6 should work on your machine as its
nearly identical to dave haynies setup.  Don't use the bits 32 option either. 
bits 31 is ok, but 32 brings out a bug that doesn't show up in most machines.
(it shows up on my A3000.  you get some pretty patterns on screen).  I'm going
to mail the fix to daveh soon.
If you still can't get it to work,I would guess it's something to do with the ram on the gvp board.  You could try removing that ram and trying it. (only a guess).

BTW a guy I know can't use KICKROM on his B2000 as his particular revision has
a problem with the pals, and hangs up whenever you execute two reset intsructions in a row, ala SetCPU's KICKROM code..... perhaps you have the same rev. no.
