As I responded to a similar message fron a guy with a Microbotics
memory expansion, errors of type 00000003.xxxx and 00000004.xxxx
usually result from BAD memory chips.  Do you have the same 
errors WITHOUT the ASDG board?  Do you have a program to check out
the 1Meg on the motherboard (I though one such program was
posted to comp.sys.amiga a while ago)?
