Title: Problems with (ATX) PSUs and Gfx
Post by: ciVic on February 19, 2012, 09:31:10 PM

Hi all!

I've bought a CSPPC and it's working flawlessly. But I tried the original PSU and 3 different ATX PSU. Either my Piccolo SD64 worked VERY slow in the first minutes (yes, the Amiga has to get warm until the card works), or the AGA graphic does not work well. E.g. the "Insert Disk" screen at startup flickers (random colors) or even crashes.

Since the symptoms depends on the PSU I think they are all not suitable since I own a CSPPC. Can somebody recommend a Micro ATX PSU which I can buy in Europe so that everything works without warming up?
