Arggghhhh, I'm French and I bought a GB A600 (so with a QWERTY keyboard ... well not a big problem)
For CF, I test few brands, and I only use Sandisk (seems that Transcend works also).
I'm using a generic (From Amazon), CF PCMCIA adapter.
So, what's the brand of you CF ? If you can, by some Sandisk (I'm using 8 Go). I know (from Furia developer) that some CF are very slow to start and it can be an issue (Internal or external usage)
-
If you don't have the good tools, don't do it :-). RF modulators can be really tricky to remove and you can make damages if you do it badly. So, if you can, give the job to a professional.
No problem to boot with 3.1.4 and Furia (Sandisk 8 Go CF, burn the EPROM by myself from the official archive bought at Hyperion). Also my A600 is recapped.
-
Yep, totally agree with KKR75, no RF module, 3D print to hold VGA (you can find it on thingverse). Nearly the same config (except my CF is with another adapter so it's over the PCMCIA port and I have a Rapidroad for USB and a Gotek (No floppy drive)

Jens said : Go to Genuine PSU so ... I bought a new one with 5V 4.5 A (A lot of things in my A600 )
-
Yes, finally, a repaired RR in my mail box. Just put in my A600, everything is fine. Hope It will be OK for a very very long time with my new Genuine PSU (5V 4.5A, 12V 1A, -12V 100mA). Thank you iComp Team.

Hi, no news ? Did I lost about 100 euros ? please, answer me about my Rapid road ( one month later). Thank you, Michael
-
Hi, can I have some news please ? Thank you, Michael
-
Hello Jens, the tracking indicates that you received the RR for repair on July 2nd. Can you tell me when you think you can return the repaired RR? Thank you. Sincerely, Michael
-
Thank you Jens, I bought a 4.5A this week.
Would you advise me to do a recap ?
More generally, we must do recapping with A600, A1200 ... but what about PSU ? (Of course, electrochemical caps inside)
-
Hi Jens, I made a mistake, my new (genuine 391029-03) PSU is an A600 5V 3A, 12 V 500 mA, -12 V 100 mA. Will it be enough with : CF 8 Go, Furia accelerator, A604N + RTC + Indivision ECS v2, Internal Gotek with external OLED screen, PCMCIA WiFi card, Tom+ on mouse port with a wireless mouse ? I don't want to "burn" another RR with PSU problems :-(. I will use USB keys on RR and sometime a CD-ROM drive.
-
Hi Jens, The package is underway. Again, thank you so much. Cheers, Michael
-
Thank you Jens, really appreciate your answer. I send you the Rapidroad at the end of this week or at the beginning of next week.
-
Yes MarkSealey, icomp products are very good (I have 3 indivision v2, 3 A604n, a RRNet for C64 ...).
Jens, thank you, I will send you the Rapidroad at the end of the week
"especially with a sense wire, so the voltage drop on the cable is taken into account." ... can you explain ? what can I do ? can I use the C64PSU, with modification, or no ? I'm not sure if the original Amiga (Light PSU) can offer enough power (A600, CF Sandisk, Gotek, A604n + RTC + Indivision v2, Furia + WiFi PCMCIA + Rapidroad) ?
-
Thank you for your post.
I ´m waiting for Jens now

Hello, I received my Rapidroad and installed last week (A600 + A604n + RTC + Indvision v2 + Furia). Since this morning, it does not work anymore (Poseidon does not see it anymore). There is no more LED enabled. FYI, I use a C64PSU power supply. On the warranty, it is marked / TLWt. Can you tell me the procedure to follow for a return with refund of preference to a repair? (I did not want to spend time with something that works randomly). Thank you. Sincerely, Michael ps: order : 58336
