: What speed of 65816 do you have?

It's a -14 and the person I got it from, had to
replace it, was aware I wanted a 14 MHz chip, so
I assume that means that it is one.

: How fast are you running the card?

I have a 32.0000 MHz crystal in it.

: If you are running the card over 8mhz have you
: installed faster cache ram?

I just changed the ram from 62256 -35, to 61256 -20.
Now I am able to configure the card, and it passes
all the self tests, and it runs quick compared to
without it. The only thing is, I still get the error
code 0201 when I boot up. Is it possible that I could
slow it down to 7 MHz and relieve this? I don't need
it that fast. Also, I haven't done a complete pull and
reseat of all the chips, as in, PALs, GALs, etc......
Do you think this might be it, or would it not run at
all with one of those not seated correctly?

Thanks for your input so far, I've made some progress.
