Found Amiga 500 CIA

[vA2]

Hi!

Looking for a 318029-03 CIA (EVEN).
My A500+ sometimes freezes when I doubleclick a folder and heard that usually can be the CIA chip.
Reastart to work for a short while when the disk is ejected and reinserted.

Any tips or CIA chips are welcome!

Regards,
Pierre

Swap them in places, if everything works as before it is not CIA

I think I have one in a box. PM sent.

Hi.

Thanks for the tip. Changed them but then the Amiga would not start. White screen, then no picture after 3-5 seconds.

That would suggest that one is faulty, check if all pins are in place and swap them back and see if it comes to life again

Hi!

All pins in place.
When refitted into original locations it boots again, but the old problem is back.
Hard to know if it is the ODD or EVEN ship that is bad.

In Latin it means something like: "it is better to have more than less"
