  • I recently installed this new card to work with OS3.9WB and Whdload 18.5. The 32GB CF card has three partition - DH0, DH1 and DH2. However, DH1 and DH2 always show as being 'Uninitialized'. Please see attached.


      


    I have tried a different different memory expansion card (A1200SDE+ fast mem card) and all drives show correctly.


    I've tried changing the MAPROM physical jumper from the default setting to 'unprotect', which does fix the problem, but unfortunately the OS is not able to function correctly without the additional memory. The card is running at the standard 28 Mhz.


    Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.


    Cheers,

  • The easiest way is to download ACAtool, close the "unprotect"-jumper and save settings to the card once. Then remove the unprotect jumper again and power up the machine - that should be it.
