Message-ID: <47837@nigel.ee.udel.edu> Date: 16 Mar 91 07:04:26 GMT Sender: mmdf@ee.udel.edu Lines: 32 Okay, I am about to throw in the towel and buy a (UGH) IBM system, and it makes me sick. I am running an A1000 with a Sidecar and have surmounted SO many problems, but a few remain. Most noteably, the problem I am having involves the talking between the two sides. When I am running the Amiga side all by itself I have no problem acessing the Hard Drive on the IBM side as an Amiga drive, but when I run the PC Windows program, the Amiga side LOCKS UP, and the IBM side gets wierd graphics (ANSI) characters showing up. When I reboot the IBM side I get a "E0000h Optional ROM bad Checksum = 44h" error (or some other checksum number) What gives? Are my ROMS bad? HELP before I buy an IBM!!! HELP!!!!!
