    What has happended to the ADS file tick area's?

    died like most amiga's that hatched files to ads :)

    I still have two working A4000's and a A3000 that's in bits...

    Geez, I just got to thinking about what's in the back room ... a dead A4000 and a dead A3000. And three A500s, and A2500/030 (all working) as well as an A3000T that I am slowly getting around to hacking a PeeCee power supply into since original, working A3000T power supplies are hen's teeth (hard to find for our non colloquial American-speakers).

    If I get around to finding a set of CIA chips for the A4000 it will live again. Made a rookie mistake (after owning Amigas (and an Amiga dealership) since the A1000 and hot swapped a printer cable. OOOPS!

    Anyway, y'all have a very good New Year.

    Hello Dave.

    30 Dec 10 05:41, you wrote to me:

    I still have two working A4000's and a A3000 that's in bits...

    Geez, I just got to thinking about what's in the back room ... a dead A4000 and a dead A3000. And three A500s, and A2500/030 (all working)
    as well as an A3000T that I am slowly getting around to hacking a
    PeeCee power supply into since original, working A3000T power supplies
    are hen's teeth (hard to find for our non colloquial
    American-speakers).

    This link might be of some help to you. (I have wrapped the line around just in case, so it will need to be fixed by hand)

    I have used it to hack a atx psu for my A4000, and a AT psu for the A3000!

    If I get around to finding a set of CIA chips for the A4000 it will
    live again. Made a rookie mistake (after owning Amigas (and an Amiga dealership) since the A1000 and hot swapped a printer cable. OOOPS!


    Ouch... Those guys are solderd right to the board, and will require a bit of work to replace. #-(

    Thanks, it's a different place from where I got my info from ... actually, I took the pin-outs from the molex connector from the Amiga supply and the pin-outs from the AT supply and played mix & match. I'll go to that web site and bookmark it for future reference. <brief pause> There, that's done.

    Tell me about it. I'll probably need to get motivated first to go look for a set of CIAs. Then get further motivated into setting up my soldering bench and finding the solder sucker and solder wick I know is somewhere in this rat's nest. Bv)= Or just bundle it up and send it off to St. Paul, MN and Raycomp.

    Oh, and by the way ...
