    Default A600 Repair

    Hi,
    Is there anyone here in the UK who would be willing to repair my 2 A600 mobos?
    Both rev 1.5 PAL. Basically one I *think* just needs the caps replacing (I have them, just not the confidence in my soldering skills...).
    And the other, when you boot it give a yellow and black flashing screen (with caps lock light on permanently!)
    Is that enough info to give me an approximate cost?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Default A600 repair

    Do not send them to Analogic Computers (UK) Ltd of Kingston upon Thames, I had them attempt a repair on a A1200 once and my brother sent them his A4000 they were no better when they came back from them.

    I thought about Amigakit, but called them and they said it could be a few months before they could look at them

    That was in regard to finding fault / repairing.

    We can change the caps with a fairly quick turn around.
    But the service linked to does'nt extend to repairing anything.
    Its simply what it says "A capacitor replacement service".
    On news of PSPUAE update on DCEMU came this reply, lol.
