Re: Roms needed for a Rev C Ramfast PLEASE Anyone??? :)



Thanks for the ideas.  Unfortunately with the Roms that came with this card,
all it does is dump into the monitor upon bootup.  That is why I was happy
to see that if I put in the U16 1.0 I had laying around that at least the
friendly U15 3.0 boot code functioned....   Then again who knows where in la
la land the first code calls into the second rom..

This card came from an ebay auction and from AUSTRALIA....  Hence. who
knows.... Maybe it was left in the sun half way around the world :)

Termination is fine and the drive is fine.  The drive just loves my Ramfast
REV D card.

Oh well, it was worth a shot.  If anyone comes across a working Rev C any
rom set, I would be interested to work something out.

Thanks!
