Petro: 500 units new Amiga 1200 Magic Pac

[csxlab]

Mine just arrived from petro .... Doesn't work.

Well the lights turn on ... but no drive sound.

Pressed ctrl+a+a, and resets, the caps  lock key goes on, and I get a green/black screen.

Oh and no bootrom either in the tv ....

Did you leave it on for 30 seconds - 1 minute? They don't like to boot up quickly if there's no hard drive installed, depending on the ROM version.

Yes I did

Open it up and inspect the motherboard. Caps first of all...

  Hi will do so, thank you for the reply. Any tutorial around? Which caps should I check and how? hehe I don't have a clue.  Tried again to turn it up, this time nothing happens, not even light up, so I think it's really the PSU. could it?

Hah, I have one wiggly PSU as well What's the deal with that ?

csxlab, measure the voltages on your PSU's pins. That way you can establish whether it works or not. I don't suppose you have another one near by ?
As far as the motherboard is concerned, inspect eevveerryytthhiinngg in detail. For any signs of burns, leaks or other deformities.

Hi, good morning, actually I dind't say anything about wiggling, just not giving enough power. Well I don't have any way to measure the output, and I don't have any other Power source to try, So today I will disassemble a take some photos of the MB

Btw, the PSU last night was not working at all, and I'm living in Maastricht but I'm Portuguese, came to live here 3 months ago, so I actually don't know anyone in this city, or specialized stores yet.

will research more. thank you all for your input.

Did you get it working with a replacement PSU?

Hey, still didn't find anyone near me with a PSU to test. It will take some time for me, because only in one month or so, I'lll go home and can bring the A500 PSU. But untill then I will try to get some expert to do the recaps here in the Netherlands.
