put the card into your computer, you should make sure to set the jumpers properly. The jumpers are only for the SID chips, so if you're not planning to use a SID on your Catweasel, this step can be skipped. These jumper settings attach the capacitors to the SIDs that Commodore has recommended. The sound is nearly identical to the original computers C64 and C128. It's more common that statistical spreading between SID chips cause sound differences than capacitor tolerances, but we have chosen to use low-tolerance capacitors anyway. Note: The parts C39 and R5 are not assembled intentionally. 3 4 Audio-connector The output of the SID chips can be routed from the internal audio-connector to the line-in or the CD-audio input of your sound card. The internal audio connector on the Catweasel MK4plus follows the de-facto standard of CD rom drives, so a standard CD-rom audio cable should work. Unlike the previous version of the Catweasel MK4, there is no audio cable included with the Catweasel MK4plus. Instead, we have added an external audio connector with a 3.5mm stereo jack, which is commonly used in PC audio applications. Connecting an Amiga Keyboard The external PS2 jack can be used to connect an Amiga 4000 Keyboard. ● Can I connect an A2000/A3000 keyboard to the Catweasel MK4plus? Yes, this is possible with an off-the-shelve PS2 adapter for older AT-keyboards. These adapters are available commercially in PC-stores and mailorder-shops. ● Can I connect a CDTV keyboard to the Catweasel? The CDTV keyboard uses the same connector, but a different pinout for the connector. You will need to solder an adapter to connect the black CDTV keyboard. ● Can I connect an A1000 keyboard to the Catweasel? The A1000 uses a totally different connector, a 4-pin WD-modular, also known as a phone jack or RJ11 connector. The protocol of the keyboard is the same as for other keyboards, so the A1000 keyboard will also work with the Catweasel MK4plus with an adapter. These adapters are not available commercially, so you will have to make one yourself, if you have the necessary skills and tools.

  • Troubleshooting and Recovering from Problems
    Microsoft Windows 7 Unleashed, Paul McFedries, Sams Publishing, 0672330695, July, 201 CHAPTER 21 IN THIS CHAPTER . Troubleshooting Strategies: Troubleshooting and Determining the Source of a Problem Recovering from . General Troubleshooting Tips Problems . More Troubleshooting Tools . Troubleshooting Using Online Resources If it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic. Recovering from a Problem —Lewis Carroll A long time ago, somebody proved mathematically that it was impossible to make any reasonably complex software program problem-free. As the number of variables increase, as the interactions of subroutines and objects become more complex, and as the underlying logic of a program grows beyond the ability of a single person to grasp all at once, errors inevitably creep into the code. Given Windows 7’s status as possibly the most complex software ever created, the bad news is that there are certainly problems lurking in the weeds. However, the good news is that the overwhelm- ing majority of these problems are extremely obscure and appear only under the rarest circumstances. This doesn’t mean that you’re guaranteed a glitch-free computing experience—far from it. Third-party programs and devices cause the majority of computer woes, either because they have inherent problems themselves or because they don’t get along well with Windows 7. Using software, devices, and device drivers designed for Windows 7 can help tremendously, as can the maintenance program I outlined in Chapter 7, “Maintaining Your Windows 7 System.” But computer problems, like the proverbial death and taxes, are certainties in life, so you need to know how to troubleshoot and resolve the problems that will inevitably come your way.

  • How Do I Use Windbg Debugger to Troubleshoot a Blue Screen of Death?
    How do I use WinDBG Debugger to troubleshoot a Blue Screen of Death? Have you ever wondered how to obtain extra information from the infamous Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) that will sometimes show up and give you a cryptic, Stop: 0x00000000 error message, before flashing off the screen. The error message is trying to point you to a fatal operating system error that could be caused by a number of problems. Microsoft's WinDBG will help you to debug and diagnose the problem and then lead you to the root cause so you can fix it. Steps in a nutshell The first step is to create and capture the memory dump, associated with the BSOD you are trying to troubleshoot. The second step is to install and configure WinDBG and the Symbols path to the correct Symbols folder. We can then use WinDBG to Debug and analyze the screen dump, and then get to the root cause of the problem. Create memory dump Keep in mind that if you are not experiencing a blue screen fatal system error, there will be not memory dump to capture. 1. Press the WinKey + Pause 2. Click Advanced and under Start up and Recovery select Settings. 3. Uncheck Automatically restart. 4. Click on the dropdown arrow under Write debugging information. 5.

  • Troubleshooting Video Toaster [2] Revised October 15, 2002
    Troubleshooting Video Toaster [2] Revised October 15, 2002 1. Hardware 1.1 Controllers Adaptec 19160 if using the internal connections don’t use the SCSI160 port next to the old 50 pin connector, it is limited to the old speed. Hook up the SCSI cable to the other port that is by itself. Further, the external connector on the back of this controller is NOT LVD capable, so if using an external drive case, hook the external ribbon up to the 19160's internal connector. You can also buy an L-connector that connects to the card and provides for a slot connector using an empty PCI slot. IDE RAIDs Contributed by Ryan McClure: I just wanted to let you know that the RAID I built with four Western Digital HDDs works with Toaster successfully. The Western Digital drives are 120 GB in size with 8 MB data buffers. They are connected to a Promise Technologies SuperTRAK SX6000 RAID card. This gives me about 36.0 MB/sec. 1.2 Drives 3Ware Controller 3Ware says It is very important to set the cluster size to 64k on the Escalade's video drives. Setting it to 1024 will cause heavy fragmentation and quickly choke the system.
