E540 - In this episode i deep dive with the help of the Pistorm team to figure out why my Amiga 1200 will Not show the speed burst in the later fixes of the chip ram updates. With the exceptional assistance of the team we discover exactly the reason why MY 1200 doesn't. We slap through various bus tests the results of removing it and adding it with certain resolutions in the 31khz range with the combination of the AGA Scanplus (this prob applies to iComp devices in the mark whatever range also) also my divoom repair counter reverted from 301 to 294 again.
Hope this helps someone out there.
