>>Frankly, you should start over with a clean boot partition.
Doing that shortly
>>All apps are not 060-friendly, or even fastram friendly for that matter.
The FastRAM issues are not a concern for me. Having owned a PAK68 and 3 TTs, Im confident that FASTRAM issues are easily negotiable.
060 issues are another story.
>>If you get that far, I'm fairly confident that your CT60 is working correctly.
I too am.
Im a bit iffy on the NVRAM errors! - those are a semi-worry
>>You may however experience certain difficulties before you get things running smoothly. The reason for this is that the falcon motherboard is a bad and unstable design
I accept that things never go 100% perfectly, nothing ever does.
>>a problem is "amplified" when using an accellerator such as the CT60.
However, I had heard that the CT60 / CT63 cured a lot of the issues found with the Falcon??
>>The CT6x is also quite picky about power supplies and SDRAMs, which may cause instability or unexpected behaviour.
Yes, the SDRAM I am using right now, is the first stick I tried... Im not convinced its good for it.
The PSU I know is rock steady stable - PCs are me forte' and I dont do crappy, so the PSU is very, very high quality.
>>You might need to patch parts of your motherboard, but everything is described on the Czuba Tech website.
I have a handful of various hardware hacks already on this board... Its second hand for me, so I never knew half of what has been done, and probably never will unless I try traciung eachand every thing on it, so its possible that somethign isnt doing what its supposed to do... or not do.
I have asked Czuba some time ago when I was seriously paranoid ( Still am - and why not with the ammount of money it costs ) about any known issues and he has said that he can take teh Falcon in and make 100% sure the CT63 is fully up and running for me... For a fee of course and this option while looking more unlikely, is still an option I will consider.
I mean, the falcon with its extra bits and now the CT63 has cost me over a grand in total now, so whats a few more quid to make 100% sure that its running EXACTLY as it should be?
See how I fare in teh next few days though cos after all, Ive only had it a day FFS!
