Workshop: Building in Busboard Mediator PCI 3/4000T (shortened)
Author: Mirko Naumann

With the Mediator PCI 3/4000T busboard Elbox offers a very good solution for owners of a A4000-T or A3000-T who wants to extend their Amiga with modern PCI-interfaces. The technical equipment is more than sufficient - the only disadvantage is the lack of an AGP-slot but which has none of the up to now available PCI-extensions.

Building in the board is much more difficult than Elbox writes it in its documentation. First you have to fix the board on the mainboard. For that Elbox delivers ten brass-coloured bolts with thread of which you need five for fixing the board. Unfortunately the gradient of the screws in my A4000-T did not fit with the one of the bolts.

Well, what is to do? I could not find matching screws at the PC-dealers and I did not want to cut the threads. So you have to remove the screws and to fix the bolts with matching nuts on the main board. It is also annoying that the board hides the connection of the clock-battery and of the internal speakers. By bending the contacts it works but thats not a professional solution which you can expect.

Remark of the editing stuff:
In this connection please read the paragraph ´Exclusion of liability´ in our Legal Infos. (ps) (Translation: dr)
