I recently got an A1000 that has some issues. I'm new to amiga stuff and trying to educate myself on it, so please correct me if I'm wrong.
The problem:
The system immediately boots to a blinking red screen. There is no response from the floppy drive when a floppy is in it.(I had to point that out because on another site people kept saying to insert a kickstart floppy). There's no grey screen at all before that. If I remember correctly there's different grey screens, one for each major component, that are displayed during the boot sequence correct?
I looked up the error colors and red appears to be a bad checksum from the boot roms. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and trying to confirm that it is the roms.
My other question is that should the screen blink or should it stay red? I'm wondering if another chip is causing a timing error and/or other things to reset. I pulled and re-seated every socketed chip and checked the voltages on the psu, but still have the same results.
