Re: Help: Set up a GS with CP/M?

I've got a GS (rom 1?).  got a scsi card in slot 7, and I put the CP/M
card in slot 4.

when I boot with a (presumably good) CP/M disk:

if slot 4 is set to "Mouse Card"  I get the "No Z80 Found" startup
message, and no light on the card.  makes sense, indicates to me the
disk is good.

if slot 4 is set to "Your Card", then the little light on the CP/M
card goes on, but the machine just hangs.

it's one of those cards with the 4 dip switches (all off) the
micorshaft clone.. or something.

any ideas?

I think most, maybe all, pre-IIgs CP/M cards need to have the processor speed set to slow. My ALS CP/M card works this way. Cards designed with the IIgs in mind can run at normal speed.
