Weird!
I have back two a4k mbs and daughterboards after having caps, simm sockets, rca sockets, op amps, batteries etc etc replaced.
They both perform flawlessly, with one strange quirk. They now sit there for about 30 seconds before attempting to boot, but when they do boot they boot up quickly and run prefectly.
One of the systems is as follows:
A4k desktop with 3.1 roms and 16 mb fast
Cyberstorm Mk III 060 @ 60 Mhz with 128 Mb fast
DKB 3128 with 128 Mb fast
Cybervision 64/3d + Scan doubler module
Deneb USB Card
Ariadne II network Card
IDE DVD Burner
73GB Seagate SCSI HD
HD Floppy Drive
350 watt atx PSU (adapted into the original a4k psu case)
Running OS 3.9
When I first switch on I get teh brief green screen and little tune by the Deneb Card, then it sits there for a good 30 seconds before booting. It then boots for like 1 second and resets (os 3.9 - normal) then playsthe Deneb tune (and green screen), then waits again for like 30 seconds before booting up to wb.
The systems were apart for quite a while waiting for the mbs to be done, so a jumper setting may have been bumped etc... any ideas what is causing the long wait before booting?
