Ok guys, so I've been tearing my hair out with this for about 6 months now. I want to get a SCSI2SD adapter working in my CDTV but nothing I try seems to work.
Reading the few posts/forums I can find about this, people say it just works out of the box for them, so I'm either doing something wrong or have a fault.
I have a SCSI2SD adapter V5 from AmigaKit, tested and working fine in my Amiga 3000.
I have a CDTV SCSI card purchased from ebay about a year ago. (Image of model attached).
CDTV is a 1.3 machine with 8mb RAM via diag port, and 1.0 extension ROMS.
I have tried a few SD cards in the unit, current one is a 16 GB SanDisk card.
These are the SCSI2SD settings I have:
I've configured a 1.3 2 GB partition in UAE and it works fine there. I've prepped the card into a few 2GB partitions using PSFAIO, tested it using CDTV settings on WinUAE and it works fine there.
Moving the card over to my CDTV however, nothing...
HDInstTools gives me this error:
A590 hard disk install tools tells me Driver not installed.
When powering on the CDTV the CDTV SCSI card red LED is lit and the yellow lamp flickers a few times, the yellow LED on the SCSI2SD flickers a few times too (so it seems they are communicating).
I've tried a few different cables, no difference.
Both termination packs are installed in the SCSI2SD device still.
I am not using any external power for the SCSI2SD (several people have told me the v5 doesn't need it), but have tried with USB power and no difference. I can buy an external molex supply if this could be an issue though.
I've ran out of ideas, anyone offer any help? :?
Thanks
