AppleIIgs Rom1 Weirdness (con't)

[tmyers@autobahn.mb.ca (Todd Myers)]

	Hi;

   This is a continuation...I have _just_ finished wiring-up a 230W
PC powersupply to this GS and it still exhibits the same symptoms,
with one exception. I copied System 5.0.4 to the first partition of
the 52Meg hard drive and now I get a boot message overlayed on top
of the GS text splash (the one that announces what rom revision,
copyright date, yadda, yadda, yadda.) This message states that I
should see my local dealer for a ROM upgrade?!?!

   From reading here in the past I understand that there were 2 (?)
Rom1's. The motherboard is a IIe upgrade board, so I may have the
first of these upgrades. The VGC handles double HiRes fine so I
think that's the good version...I checked the FAQ earlier...the VGC
chip revision was fine, but I cannot remember if the ROM1 PROM
checked...342-0077-B. I will talk to Alltech and see if I can trade
this in for a ROM3 MB.

   Any thoughts or comments on this would be welcome.
