Hi, I have several A1200. On one of them, i can't use pcmcia. It's a rev 2B with rev F sticker made on week 48 in 1992. When i remove the v1200 and i use my old M1230XA, pcmcia works. What can i do to make it works with v1200?

Update to latest core EXTERNAL LINK And put your cf adapter on motherboard's IDE

I've allready this core version. It's a motherboard revision problem not a vampire core problem as my v1200 works on other A1200. I've checked and my motherboard Rev is 1B not 2B...

I've done another test: Pcmcia compact flash adapter works only on my Rev 1A A1200. I've a Rev 1D1 and 1A on which pcmcia doesn't work correctly with v1200 inserted.

I'm seeing a lot of hits on google about the 2B motherboard revision on odd timing and PCMCIA issues even on stock units.

I just tried the PCMCIA on one of my Rev. 1B boards, and it worked fine.

Some motherboard has been fixed by users to support cards such as 68040. Maybe, the V1200 card needs some motherboard fixes too.
