I think you have identified the problem as the REV 6.0 motherboard.  I
too have such a beast and was forced to buy TWO disk controllers since
the Hardframe would NOT work with the 6.0 motherboard.  My Supra works
fine.  I have been told that some memory expansion card will not work
as well.  As for getting it updated at the dealer, CBM and others tell
me that it is NOT RECCOMENDED and that a motherboard replacement is
required.  However, good luck in getting it done in Europe.  I have
contacted the Belgian Commodore office(no real reply) and Commodore in
Braunsweig Germany.  I STILL do not have an answer as to how I can get
my motherboard replaced.  As far as I am concerned, it is a FIASCO for
those of us who have the problem.  CBM has a LONG way to go before
their support over here is a level that can be called "professional"

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
