Falcon 030 external cartridge port issues
Posted: Mon Jun 20, 2022 10:03 am
Stock Falcon 030 with FPU and 14Mb ram, Exxos NVRAM mod applied and PSU recapped with caps from Exxos.
I bought an USBee from CenturionTech recently and I'm having issues since day one. It works for a few seconds with an USB mouse and flash drive plugged in. But after a few seconds the mouse looses power and the flash drive stops working.
Assuming the USBee (with gold plated contacts, not the standard one) works, I guess the external cartridge connector has issues. I cleaned the connector with IPA and DeoxIT but no change. Might there be any other issues I should check for? I'm using the latest (NET)USBee drivers, correctly installed in AUTO as described in the manual.
