I got one, do have to test it though.

Update: I tested in my A2000 where this card once used in and where all the needed software was still installed.
When I boot with the left mouse button pressed, all I get is what you see in the picture.
I don't how to solve that, but I think the hardware is found and therefore the adapter seems to work.

Can you see the board with sysinfo or some other tool ?
If so, i'm interested.
 
The Software you have installed is version 5. This one needs the KCS Dual HD Floppy drive to start. Try to test it with version 4.5...

Very good BlindGerMan! I didn't know that anymore, I don't have those drives anymore but V5 is still installed.


So I tried to do a new installation on my A2000 with V4.5 but the floppydrive didn't work properly.
Then I installed V4.5 on my A4000T and it worked! (see pic).

So if there's still interest let me know.

I have done some further research and I have a version 1.
This means that I can only use floppy disk.
I don't think it's worth using it.

I will continue to use it as a memory extension and a ram disk extension for my A500.

Thanks for the offer but I will leave it as it is.
