Ok I got it to work...
You need to put the FastATA on 4 ROM sockets 2x2 and you'll need to insulate the Indy to keep it from shorting against the FastATA. For best result you'll need to remove the excess from the through-hole soldering on the FastATA. I used a dremel tool with a little grinding wheel which was a mistake because I ruined a trace and had to fix it with my crappy soldering skills. I could not get the RF shielding to fit back on ![]() HD720 looks great! EDIT: oops. that should read FastATA MK IV in the topic, sorry

DVI worked on one monitor I tried and the results looked excellent. VGA has some banding, but its still very nice....
Frontier whdload version gets no video, but I can see svideo with the AmigaManaic adapter... Very happy with this purchase

Good work.
![]() Thankfully my Fast ATA & Indivision AGA is in my A4000 where everything fits, but I'll remember this if I add an Indivision to my A1200 tower which also has a Fast ATA.

![]() I actually think I would put the FastATA on 2 extra ROM sockets even if i did not have the Indivision. The thing seems to fit more securly... with 2X2 like I have the case does close, but the KB is pressing down on the FastATA, just a little, which may be good... Also I have found that if you use 2 smaller wire ties in parallel (To Secure the FastATA) you can really get them a lot tighter than one single larger tie. That being said, I'd like to get rid of the fast ATA and get the IDEFix Express when that comes out. cheers! Last edited by bbond007; 05-08-2012 at 09:37 PM.. |

Make sure you get HighGFX driver from aminet.... i'm using the included HD720 driver wich rocks. I was under the impression that Indivision AGA MK2 would only support PAL and NTSC monitor types at first. I don't know where I got that from... Good luck! |

I have SAMBA on my 1200 so I just opened the pictured in Art Department Pro and saved them as HAM8 IFF. The iPhone pics and how they get downsized don't do the display justice... |

Where do you get those sockets?! I have that exact problem at the moment. I was thinking that a riser would do the job but obviously haven't ordered a set yet.

The Indivision Mk2 has the best output I've seen to date (DVI) of any non-graphics board display. Stunningly sharp. I also see none of the sync issues I have with the Mk1.
My problem, however, is that my ACA1231 suddenly stopped working when I hooked up the Mk2. So I get a good display or RAM and a fast CPU/MMU, but not both. That and until I get risers myself I lost my Fast ATA Mk4 |
