Need Franklin 1200 help bad!

Help!
 
I just got a Franklin 1200 some time ago, and I thought it was supposed to
be actually compatible with the II+.
 
Well, when it boots the machine first has an Apple-sounding beep and then
says "softboot looking to load FPBASIC".  If a DOS 3.3 Apple system master
disk is in the drive, some file reading occurs, then it boots like a PR#6
and than I can do a "CATALOG".
 
If no system master is in the drive, then the system says "no FPBASIC file
found, will try to boot the disk anyway" and then does a PR#6.  But almost
all of the II software I have crashes when it would normally boot OK  on my
GS and II+ and Laser and Franklin 2200.  Oh, the beep sound on a crash
sounds like the Franklin 2200 beep.  RESET usually doesn't work, so I have
to turn the system off and put in another disk and try again.
 
What's happening?
 
Oh, by the way, there looks to be a 16k card in slot0, what might be a
Franklin dual I/O card in slot 1, a Franklin 80 column card in 3 and I have
no idea what in slot 4. The drive is connected to a drive-mount space on the
motherboard.  I have a Franklin 1000 disk controller card, but there's
something blocking the card from fitting in slot 6, and when I put it in
slot 7 it gets ignored and the "softboot" thing tries to boot a drive
conneted to the motherboard.
