It came without hard drive but the original ACSI-SCSI adapter is present.
What I’ve done so far:
- Cleaning of the Mother board
- Cleaning of the floppy head and lubrification of mechanical parts
- Machine was not booting, so I swapped the original TOS 2.05 with a freshly burnt 2.06
- TOS 2.06 was bombing right after memory tests=> 4 bombs, possibly floppy issue.
- Changed floppy cable: finally booting to desktop!
- Recaped PSU with Exxos kit and replaced the fan with a Noctua=> getting a steady 5.16v at the CPU. I find it a bit high, but I don’t know how to adjust it on Phiong PSU.
- Machine was hanging after a few mins, I realized the CPU was getting burning hot. Cleaned the socket and replaced with HC variant, now everything is cool and no more freezing.
- Programmed a GAL and added a 68882 FPU.
- Replace the original power and HD LEDs which are totally rusted
- Mod the ACSI-SCSI Adapter to support drives bigger than 1Gb
- Add an internal HD replacement
With the 3 dip switchs ON and an SCSI2SD connected, I can’t manage to get it to work
SCSI2SD is version 5.0 with 1 device of size 512Mb, I tried different SCSI IDs, removing the bus termination, changing to Slow mode, but it simply doesn’t work. I manage sometimes to have it detected using PPDriver, but it doesn’t even display the drive size, just vendor ID. With HDDriver 11, it’s not even detected.
Is there any specific setting for SCSI2SD to get it to work with Atari ?
