$25... $0... $25... $0...

plus, the height of the two rom chips stacked nicely supports the accelerator board.

it appears that 68000 fall back mode doesn't work with the KS 3.1 rom, but does with the KS 1.3?
I guess the MMR was designed before KS 3.1 now wasn't it...

flick two switches, and we're back to this

That was running in PAL mode according to the SysInfo tool - interesting because the Rev6a board im running is from Germany not the USA.

lol, can you post a pic (or details) of your mobo showing the Clock Crystal & Agnus?

Im curious to see what you's looks like as mine has JP4 joined and a 28.375mhz Clock Crystal.

Btw, does your GBS-8200 work with PAL cause if I boot in PAL using the hold-down both mouse buttons method, mine doesnt work properly and I get most of the screen missing.

LOL, just before you power up your miggy, hold down both mouse buttons (KS3.1) and the boot menu will appear, go into Display and you can select from either mode - mine seems to default to NTSC atm even tho my research indicates I have the PAL Clock crystal - apparently for PAL it will be 28.37516MHz and NTSC it will be 28.63636 MHz.

I can only assume mine defaults to PAL? but haven't checked, been working on my car...

works ok with the GBS though?

also, the fact yours lists the "Vert HZ" and "Supply Hz" as 60Hz, instead of 50Hz probably has something to do with it...

I'm sure someone else can fill us in?
