Don't Panic. Please wash hands.

    I am not using an HDMI switch, only the rgb2HDMI adapter which uses a Raspberry Pi Zero in addition to some D-type flipflop ICs The adapter goes straight to the monitor from the RPi HDMI. What's strange is that the power was going off at what seemed like random times. I tested the PSU with my original A500 and I did not get any switch off events, so it is fine with that Amiga with HDMI.


    Its a shame because I use the new build Amiga the most and will have to not use the original power supply until I get my alternative power supply mounted into a box.

    For over a year the CA-PSU was working fine but now it seems to go off at random times, but more frequently during CF card writes or when copying files. This resulted in hours of wasted time backing up my CF card and formatting before use. Its very frustrating.

    When the power from the power supply goes off, the green LED goes out. It seemed to happen very occasionally to begin with but much more frequent now to the point where I cannot use it in case it corrupts my CF cards again, so I reverted tot the original Amiga PSU that is working reliably. Is it a duff device? Can it be replaced?

    Thank you for the reply. So far the CF operation in the Buddha is working fine despite the Zorro PCB not being to electrical spec.

    I checked the version and it is 52.101 so I won't attempt to re -flash it. I copied CacheCDFS to L directory still having an issue, I will investigate further in the next few days. I still can see the correct drive when using FindDevice but got a warning when reinstalling the CD drive software, I will make a note of the message this evening.

    Hello,

    I have installed a new Buddha into an Amiga 500+ in a Checkmate 1500+ case with Zorro breakout PCB. It is working fine after installing the drivers and I have it working with a CF card with an adapter plugged right into the Budddha. I also have a CD/DVD ROM connected to the other Buddha IDE port and during installation of the CD drivers I'm having problems.


    When I run Finddevice, and it scans, it does find the correct CD ROM drive which is an LG GS40N. This is a slim SATA interface and I have used an adapter to bring it out to SATA and another adapter to get to IDE. Despite this, it is recognized and I have seen that others have used this same drive successfully.


    When I reboot or try to select "USE" I get the message about the license issue with Elaborate bytes etc, I also saw this message during installation. I have downloaded CacheCDFS but what do I do with it and where must I place it? Hope you can help, thank you.


    PS, I bought the Buhdda earlier this year so assumed it has the latest firmware and have not flashed anything.
