Awesome work Mike, thanks for all your help.

I can't wait to get them back especially the A600 board and my ACA620 when that comes back :cool:

Payment sent as agreed :thumbsup:
 
@ Chris - your board all running nice - sound crisp and speed is good.

I still get the odd flickering power light at turn on but only when the accelerator is plugged in - ive cleaned and tensioned the edge connector - its not done it since.

Also it was still crashing on Whdload and other programs - i could not find the fault , eventually i plugged my microdrive in with OS3.0 on and its worked fine since - id suggest a clean WB install on you CF card..

safe journey home , nice to meet you.

- turns out the fpu was faulty not the workbench install , overclocked to 46mhz now :-)
 
Thanks again mike, enjoying the new speped, I think the psu is going to be needed at some point in the near future, whdload is crashing, but Its currently running Deus Ex Machina perfectly whish is just a .exe demo that runs off my hdd.

More testing later,although I may try an older whdload install in a bit.

Thanks :D
 
no worries have fun

46 mhz may be pushing it a bit...

PS

ive not got that demo ..ive just youtubed it
 
Back to 28mhz.. and whdload behaves..
Also, even sans trapdoor, its was getting rather toasty at 46mhz.
Off in search of a 33 and 40mhz crystal :D
 
Hi Mike, I got another 1200 Mobo today, the Video output is very wavy on RGB and AV, do you think a Re-Cap would help?

Otherwise the board seems fine... :)
 
Hi steve ,

mmmm i wouldnt like to say , ive just recapped a 1200 with bad AV but good RGB - it didnt cure the AV (composite). having said that I've recapped boards with no pic and the recapping made it burst in to life...

Cheers mate.

I'll be in touch about that and the A4000 for re-capping soon :)
 
Thanks Mike for a great recapping job on my A1200 and for bringing the dead Apollo back to life!

Hi Mike,

Sending you a PM. Looking to get two Amiga 600's and a 1200 recapped.
 
When you slow down a bit I have one or two A600's I need recapped. Let me know your availability. :)
 
Hi guys

Sending from the states takes over a week anyway and if your not too desperate to get them done then please send them. I should be caught up in a week or so.

Mike :-)
 
Hi Mike,

I finally found a box will hold the miggy mobos for under 1.9 Kgs!

I will post tomorrow by Canada Post Xpresspost Courier to your address.

It will contain:
  • A4000 NTSC plus A3640
  • A1200 NTSC
  • A600 PAL
I can pay you the base full amount now (26 pounds x3) plus the difference later (i.e. shipping costs). Or I can pay you the final amount in one lump sum at the end. Please let me know your preference.

Thanks!!

Regards,
ed...
 
hi Ed.
