Could you please send it to me? I'm about to receive an EPROM burner, and was wondering where to get it... :mrgreen:

This is interesting. I now got information in a swedish Discord-channel that another person has the exact same problem as me with ehide kickstart ROM's 3.2.3 + TF1260 + RTC = No POST.
Haven't been able to burn new rom's yet but my 3.2.3 rom's contains ehide v.1.2 (When writing: "version ehide.device" in shell).

Hmm i’m very confused :lol: but we have to try burn new rom’s with your files anyway just so we can rule that out.

Try my roms so you can rule out that the roms you have are giving you the problem, and ehide 1.2 is the latest one no point in trying an earlier version,
also what A1200 motherboard do you have I.E commodore, Escom ? and revison I.E 1A, 1B, 1D1, 1D3, 1D4, 2B

Good to know, then it should work with your kickstart-files. Fingers crossed! :D

What’s interesting is that my computer worked just fine with a TF1230 and all of the mentioned components. The problem started when i got the TF1260.

I have now tried your kickstart-files in new ROM's. Unfortunately same problem :(

Motherboard revision 1D.4 (Commodore)
3.2.3 with ehide + TF1260 + RTC = No boot, just grey screen, no floppydrive click nothing. CTRL+Amiga+Amiga color-flashes the screen from TF1260 though.

3.2.3 with ehide + TF1260 No RTC = Boots just fine, no problem at all.

Could it be my TF1260 that is faulty? As this problem occur in another A1200 aswell.

Posted a video showing the problem:

Very strange, you said in an earlier post that you tried the 1260 and RTC in another A1200 and that works fine so obviously the problem lies with the other A1200 not liking something, as you have proved the 1260 and RTC are good, but it is puzzling :?
