Ok here is my update:
done like Stephen said (lifted Pin1 and connected it to Pin2) - card is fully working now!
Thumbs up!🖒🖒
Excellent. This will be in the next batch.
EDIT: tell me how it performs on long cables.. although I've never understood the need to have your hard disk in your neighbours house etc

Great news, glad to see that's all easily sorted.
I've probably got use for 5 or so boards when you are ready @terriblefire

Hi Stephen,
My board is working OK as long as I disable caches via the early-startup menu or using the CDIS jumper, otherwise the machine gurus as workbench loads.
When booting with caches disabled in the early-startup menu, enabling IBurst in Sysinfo or AIBB gives an instant guru.
Have tried it with different CPUs, in different machines, and have reflowed CPLD twice. Any other suggestions of areas I should check please?
Works absolutely fine otherwise, had it looping demos and games for approx 24hrs

Ok so i'd say this is not working at all.
Is this WB 3.1? It wont work on lower versions. I would look at the STERM pin. Its very strange as i've not seen this issue before.

It is WB3.1, same install/CF card is working fine with TF534s with regards to caches.
Will look into the STERM pin and associated circuit. Would it be possible to have a boardview file for this board?
Thanks,
Anthony
