Do you have a problem with your classic Amiga hardware?
Send it here and I will fix it for you.
!WARNING! This thread contains too much information and pictures. :mrgreen:
Battery damaged or capacitor corroded motherboard or accelerator? Motherboard not detecting Fast memory or Zorro cards? Broken audio? Hardware simply not working at all anymore? Don't worry, most of the times the hardware is still repairable (if parts are available).
I am offering an overall, professional level repair, restoration and upgrade service for Amiga hardware. All repairs are done thoroughly and tidy, aiming to preserve the original look of the board like how it came from the factory when possible.
I am offering the following service:
- Capacitor replacement (high quality low-ESR electrolytic or premium non-leaking low-ESR polymer capacitors)
Here are a few examples of the work I have done:
Cyberstorm PPC repaired and supercharged
Amiga 4000T restoration
Resurrecting battery damaged A4000 rev 2
Repairing and upgrading Apollo 3040
Repairing battery damaged DCE SX32 MK II
Repairing the unrepairable
Upgrading Cyberstorm MK 1 68040 -> 68060
Upgrading Blizzard PPC 68040 -> 68060
Amiga 4000cr CPU upgrade
A500+ Project Red build project
GBA1000 motherboard build project
GBA1000 68060 turbocard build project
GBA1000 Graka graphics card build project
Building Phoenix Motherboard
Unbricking Apple Mac Pro
