Well, I got myself a replacement A600 motherboard complete with top and bottom sheilding so now my A600 is back up and running.
On the downside, I've found that my 1MB RAM expansion (trapdoor slot) for said A600 is buggered (never worked properly with the old A600 motherboad tbh)
Received today a CBM 1541-II (beige floppy bezel and twist plunger).
Appears to be working (both leds comes on, then the noise of the heads seeking for the disk, then floppy led goes out).
Will test as soon as I make a set of cables. One for the C64, one for Amiga connection and the last one for use in the pc with 64HDD interface.
Now to the seek for the DIN connectors...
Oh, BTW. This 1541 doesn't have a parallel interface. All 1541 have one?

Oops!
It is a 1541C with integrated (internal) power supply. Does it uses the same JiffyDOS ROM as all the others?
David Bradley made Ctrl+Alt+Del, Gates turn it mandatory
16 Amigas at home :D
3x C= 64 :smile:
1 VIC-20 :smile:
8 PC (argh) :thumbsdown: at least one is an AROS/Amithlon unit
@Rogerio
All of the 1541 models have two Serial IEC connections and none of them come with a parallel connection built into them.The 1541C (28-Pin) and 1541-II use the same JiffyDOS. JiffyDOS from other drive models will not work.
Hope that helps!

My MAS Player from AmigaKit arrived yesterday, and what a lovely piece of kit it is.

It's a nice dinky little parallel port interface, and it even sports a tiny little Amiga Kit log on it.
Last night, after I wolfed down my evening meal I jumped straight on the Amiga, plugged the device in, powered it up and then spent the next three hours wondering why I couldn't get the thing to work.
After trying almost everything I decided to pop my head under my desk and to the back of the Amiga tower to see if the audio lead was plugged in the back of the adaptor. It was, but what did I see? I'd taken the power/joystick lead from the device, and instead of plugging it in the joystick port I'd gone and plugged it back into itself.
In the words of DelBoy - You plonker!
Once that was remedied everything miraculously started working.
You couldn't make it up, could you?!
I must give a special shout out to mfilos who answered a few questions I had, and who got me up and running with the device using Amplifier. Many thanks!
Not Amiga related but I spent my afternoon on another project
Got a new hood for the MG, went today and had a new rear plastic screen fitted too so we're all ready for Summer
