  Maybe your +12v supply cant supply enough current when the drive 
spins up.  Remember, Hard Drives require a lot of current when
first started.  The level drops considerably when its up to speed.
Check the documentation for the drive in question.  Look for the 
spin up current rating.  It could be specified at 1 Amp or more.

As far as I remember the trick is to cut two condensators on the
main board net to the keyboard plug (I think it is C101 and C102,
but I have to check it out when I get home)

Some dealers does this when they are doing other upgrades on the machine.

I have decided to upgrade my Amiga 2000HD and need to know what I need.
I have been thinking about getting a Multistart II because I have alot
of old stuff that I would still like to be able to use.  But it looks
like there is an old version and a rev 6a.  What is the difference?
I have a fairly old 2000HD, but I know that it will do Half Bright because
of the Deluxe Paint demo program.  But it sound like there are some new
chips out and several versions of Amiga DOS.  I have seen adds for 
2.0 ROMS & 2.04 ROMS and DOS 2.0 and 2.1 and 3.0.  I assume that I want
2.04 ROMS and DOS 2.1 and that 3.0 is for the 4000 and 1200.  What about
chips is there any that I really need and what about nice things to have?
I would like to have a 68881 but I have to have a place to put it don't I.
Is it worth the trouble?  I don't have alot of money to spend so
price/performance is important.  I mostly use the machine for DTP Page Stream
2.2, but would like to run some of the new things that require 2.0
Thanks for any help!  Please send me mail if you can.  I assume this is old
stuff so I don't know how much interest there is in this.
Thanks again!

I will.  It's not.  The video slot only sees the video output, it does
NOT see the chip ram bus.  A chipset could not exist there.  I could
see a daughterboard that plugged into all sorts of things on the
motherboard (Zorro II/III wouldn't cut it unless RTG is around, and
then you still wouldn't have hardware compatibility).  If this
DKB AGA upgrade exists, it will be very Rejuvenator-like.

 It does exists. But you need to write a device driver for it.
 The PCMCIA based Ethernetcards are mostly an adaptor from the
 PCMCIA Bus to a pocket-ethernet-connector.
 As yet it is almost impossible and useless to write a device driver,
 because a new TCP/IP is currently in work. Let's see whether a PCMCIA-driver
 is included, tho i doubt this. But with a socket-library, this should
 not be that big problem.

No I have not.  The problem is, that to get workbench to be even a
bit centered, by adjusting the monitor, then switching to some other
screen, that one is not centered.  For example the text on the right
side of my terminal emulator screen is cut off, or a picture is at the
edge.  Adjusting for those, then when I switch to the workbench screen
it is not centered.  I have to have the front cover of the monitor
which hides the knobs and switches hanging down so that I can be
constantly fiddling with it.  This is somewhat less than desirable.

Would  you  have  been  happier  if  the  A4000 had not been released until
January or February 1993 with the SCSI-II built in, and had costed the same
as  the  current  A4000  +  the  SCSI-II  card?  Because that was the other
option.   I  think Commodore did the right thing:  got the A4000 out there,
and  promised  a  Zorro  III  SCSI-II card (which it seems will be out real
soon).   This  had  several  advantages:   The  A4000 came out in September
instead  of early '93; people who don't really care about SCSI dont have to
pay  for  it; and the Zorro III SCSI-II Card can be used on A3000's as well
as A4000's.

They  should  continue  on  the  track they are on.  I would like to see an
A4000T  with the SCSI-II on the motherboard, and some models priced between
the A1200 and A4000 (A $1500 model, and a $2000 model would be great).  I'm
actualy pretty confident that they'll just that.

The  anouncement  of  a  DSP  add  on is iceing on the cake, as well as the
promise of not only one, but two new chipsets on the way!

>   Why complain about the way the case looks. Functional design flaws

So  are you complaining about the A4000 in this respect?  I think the A4000
is  fine.  Its got a 5.25" drive bay for CD-ROM, a 3.5" bay for the floppy,
and  space  behind  it  for  the  harddrive (could probably fit two HD's in
there,  since  they  can  be  thinner  than that hacked up floppy drive..).
Thats all most people are going to need.

They  haven't redesigned the Paula chip yet.  They instead decided to focus
on  improveing  the  graphics  (Alice and Lisa, AKA Agnus and Denise).  The
dual  speed  drive  was  a  good  idea, since it could (can) be used on any
Amiga.

 That's ridiculous!  I can get the 4000 for $2750 as it stands.  A
 measly $150 off is not going to help me.  The power-up program should
 consist of a REBATE COUPON, not a fixed price, and should not require
 you to turn in your old machine.

        the v37.10 setpatch that comes with ADos v2.04 works fine.
        the v38.31 setpatch that comes with ADos v2.10 freezes the system
RANDOMLY as it is executed in the s-s.

I say randomly and I mean it.  sometimes it'll work, sometimes FREEZO...
no Guru, no nada.

This occurs from floppy boot as well as Hard Drive boot.

I checked all the jumpers...seem ok.
Chips all seated.

Its an older machine with a 880k floppy drive.

Any Ideas out there in net land?

Ok, but how about a program that would allow you to custom design screen

output the desired monitor file.

Not a problem, since the USA1 Keymap works fine, and my fingers know where
@ and # are, even if the keys say otherwise. :-)

After seeing many fixes for this posted several years ago, I am now
getting bit by this after installing a GVP 040 combo board.  My
configuration:

Before upgrade:
    Kickstart 2.04 ROM, AmigaDos 2.05
    Rev 4.4 motherboard
    Supraram with 2 MB installed
    <Old> GVP Impact hard card with 20MB disk

New:
    Same as above plus GVP G-force 040 combo with
      68040, SCSI-2 with 120 MB hard-drive on card and 4 MB RAM.

The symptoms are probably familiar to anyone following this group.  After
a reboot, when I open a shell window, the first character I type is lost.
All subsequent characters work OK.  I know there was a fix for this
posted a year or two ago.  If anyone has it, could you please
mail it to me?
