The A1200 (and A600?) PCMCIA-port has a bug which causes some PCMCIA-cards
(especially ethernet-cards) not to work after hardreset until you remove
the card and insert it again while power is on.
It seems as if the A1200 is not generating any reset-signal for the PCMCIA-
port. The problem is easily solved by soldering a 10uF capacitor between
CC_RESET and and Vcc. The CC_RESET is active high. The cathode (-) of the
capacitor should be at CC_RESET.
CC_RESET can be found on pin 5 of Gayle (U5) and Vcc on R715A (the end which
is near Gayle).
WARNING!
Although this is a very simple thing to solder please consult a professional
if you are not good at soldering. I take no responsibility for any damages
caused by doing anything described in this file.
Thanks to

Filip Kopec for making the A1200info series.
