I have a some problems with this one. If the CD is connected to the first port together with the CF card its all good including autoboot on mount.
If I switch the CD to port 2 of the IDE interface It wont pass boot, screen just stay all black.
Any clue why it wont boot properly while on port 2...
Quite happy to say that I got both boards and CPU board to work. Refitted rom. Populated all sims. Changed J852 jumper & waited out the black screen.
Dont know what it was that fixed it but Im happy!
Now I just need to fix my A3000 aswell.
So I got 2 A4000 and 2 A3630 CPU cards with FPU. I cant get them to run at all.
They should be fine. The A3630 were bought here as new old stock and at least on of the mobos has been recapped just recently.
Im just clueless I suppose. Tried to google settings for a nonCR A4000D with A3630 but...
I cant get into the special boot screen using two mousebuttons. I tried the caps lock trick and they stall after about 20 clicks. That would indicate a faulty CPU or CIA. Im actually a bit confused about the CIA, what the hell is that?
EDIT: The HDD will spin upp, do a little bit of clicking...
Hi guys and thank you for the replies. Too many to comment on everything said. But many valid points have been made. I think my main problem with the amiga hardware hobby is the lack of time. Beeing a family man "steals" most of my spare time. The few hours I have left rarely covers the time...
I suppose it should. then again. I dont know how to properly jumper the motheboard. Ive noticed several posts claiming that no jumpers hould need to be changed like for other boards. But I havent been able to verify it.
I guess Ill have a go at changing the busters and CIA. After that I might...
Im in a bad mood. Just in a few months time I've had an enormous amount of bad luck with this hobby. A few examples:
Bought a 1200. Never received it.
After that I bought a "working" A3000 that proved to be dead on arrival. Ive spent the few hours I have for myself every night for a week and...
Just tried to switch 3.1 roms for working original 1.5 roms. Now get a white screen instead of black. Still reboots though. Tried the cpaslock trick. The lamp stops so a dead cpu?
Har har...
Anyway, I have now removed every single removable chip and refitted. Still no luck. Just black screen and then one or two blinks of the front light.
Pressing two mousebuttons at boot dosent work either. I suppose next step is to switch chips between my working A3000 the dead one to...
I always thought I had close to 2000 items. After adding the lists together I noticed that I currently have 2538 listed items. mostly SEGA and Commodore. Mainly games. All complete in excellent condition and working.
Usually only have my 1200 unpacked though.
