I just installed my A2620 board and I can not go into
68000 mode,  the machine just hangs with the orange screen from the selection
menu.

History.

my system has a :

	4.2 mother board  ( could this be a problem??)
	IVS trumpcard and an ST277N (SCSI)
	MaxHackers HD controller (MFM  non-DMA)
	2058 memory board with 4meg on board

This setup does seem to work in 68020 mode, but again it hangs when I try
to get into the 68000 mode of operation.

Help Help.... I don't want to replace the mother board ( ouch).

But a local shop has said it may very well be the rev of the mother board
that is causing this problem...

ALSO:

Are there any good benchmark type programs to check the speed of the system

Any help , comments, and programs are greatly appreciated.
