    IJ>    Hello Joacim!   
      
    IJ> 25 Dec 17 16:44, you wrote to all:   
      
    JM>> I have this accelerator for the Amiga 2000, VXL 30   
    JM>> (http://www.bigbookofamigahardware.com/bboah/product.aspx?id=196),   
    JM>> installed in my Amiga 2000 with 8MB of extra RAM.  It's great over   
    JM>> all, but a few things have been troubling me a bit so I thought I'd   
    JM>> ask around.   
      
    JM>> I also have a Golden Gate II+-card installed to be able to utilize ISA   
    JM>> network cards in my Amiga 2000 The card itself is tested and works,   
    JM>> but I cannot get the ISA NE-2000-card (with physical settings for IO   
    JM>> and IRQ) to work.   
      
    IJ> You want to use the NE-2000 NIC from Amiga OS? Or just DOS/Windows   
    IJ> side?   
      
    JM>> My question is this: Is anyone aware of any (if at all) strange   
    JM>> behaviour with the VXL 30?  My old Amiga 2000 had a GVP G-Force 030   
    JM>> and a Golden Gate II+-card and it worked perfect.   
      
    IJ> How much memory did the G-Force 030 have? 4 MB?   
      
    IJ> AFAIR there is only a 8 MB window for AutoConfig address space. If   
    IJ> the 8 MB of the VXL 30 binds into that memory space, this can be an   
    IJ> issue.   
      
    IJ> Ingo   
      
   Thanks Ingo.  I want to use it with AmigaOS.  I wonder if there is a way to   
   remap the VXL 30 RAM to not occupy this memory space?  My old G-Force 030-card   
   had 12 megs of RAM.
