So I have a Transwarp GS, had it for quite some time and always worked
fine. So I was planning on upgrading it a little by replacing the 8k
cache card with a 32k cache one. I removed the daughter card just to
see what the connectors looked like on the backside in preparation for
the replacement (since I've never seen underneath it). I then put the
card right back in, nice and tight just like it was, but now the
transwarp wont start up! I didn't break or insert anything wrong so
what gives? The green led light goes on, but the iigs behaves as if
there is no CPU. I removed the transwarp and put in the original CPU
and the machine works fine, so something happened to the transwarp. I
pulled out and pushed back in the oscillator, took out and pushed back
in the cache card again... nothing... . I also tried the transwarp on
a second IIGS I have. No dice. Do you think I may have had static
electricity that I transferred to the cache card and fried the rom or
something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
