Hi guys
Well you have had the story of my A3000 and My A4000 now its time for the A1200 this is the machine I will at some point swap for a Cyberstorm or sell but not today LOL

I got this A1200 on Ebay for a good price the PSU was OK but once I plugged in my 1260 it went pop, next I got an A500 psu would not boot with the 1260 next I took an Old AT PSU set it up and it went fizz so last resort came this ATX PSU thankfully it worked. Now came the Nightmare problem in the constant moving of parts around a crap mod done by the last owner of My 1260 caused the 1260 to fail and not boot.

This left me with no option, only thing for it was a full recap of the motherboard and a repair of the mod done by a guy who is a genius with Amigas, Enter Bebek. after a full recap and a mod done to the ATX PSU using an original Amiga PSU power lead and the repair of the botched A1260 mod I have a full working system with my indi Mk2 fitted and a 4gb CF Card.

My only gripe is that one small corner of my top cover has been chipped but hey machine still looks great and plays doom well fast.

Hope you all enjoyed my story and the pics too

Spec is

A1200
Blizzard 1260 (original not upgraded)
128mb ram
Indi Mk2 (not CR)
CF Card 4 Gig Kingston
Gotek
(maybe add my Fast ATA Mk3)
