Thank you. My will is strong but hope my knowhow is enough too :roflmao:.


All Power +5V,+12V,-12V are available
- A pwrgood signal on the U73 (8284 IC) The clock generator  on pin11 is high ca. 5V

I get my oszi soon and will check some signal  nextstep

I found this pdf (sorry in german only). It desript that the Sidecar can run alone as a PC.
I disconnected from A1000, switch sw2  dip 1 and 2 to on and plug a hercules card, but the sidecar still not booting. It will be great if someone can confirm that. It not need any hardware modification.

I'm also working on repairing a Sidecar 1060. Mine had a faulty -12vdc.  Have it hooked up to an exterrnal PSU and have replaced all the  electrolytic caps. I have some response from the unit after binddrivers  runs but then follows a corrupted screen. The unit is running hydra bios 2.05.
