I'd say you've either got a cable problem, or a blown 8520. >Are both the BUSY and SEL lines connected? > Both the BUSY and SEL lines are connected to their repective pins. BUSY line is OK, SEL is not. BUSY line does not draw 20mA, SEL does. This was the case with two different motherboards and apparently I'm going to find out about a third. My 3000 is back at the dealer to try to get everything straightened out. >A friend's DCTV almost works on my A3000, it works ok, except the >digitizer always drops part of the frame. The word from DC was that it >was a very early DCTV unit, and should be returned for an update. My friend's DCTV was one of the first ones ever made. Guess that explains a few things. I've heard that about 2 out of three existing DCTVs will NOT work on a 3000. Guess those are all the older ones. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dan Roman Internet: droman@amiglynx.nj.us GEnie: D.ROMAN1 A1000 --> 3000 FINALLY!!!
