Hi there.
Today I received a much anticipated A1200 which unfortunately arrived with slight damage to the front left corner of the case where it seems it was dropped in shipping. The packaging was damaged in the same location. I'm making the assumption this might be the cause of the following issue.
When I tested the machine it boots fine but the video is unstable with horizontal breakup. The output looks the same through Composite and RGB.
I have taken a video of the issue at the insert disk screen. You can just make out the Checkmark and the Disk icon between the video breakup.
I looked to see if any components might have been knocked loose or the MB cracked but was unable to spot anything.
The machine was sold to me as working and I've seen images of it working before postage.
Any ideas or help would be very much welcome.
Cheers!
