Title: A3000T what does this BEEP mean ?
Post by: Lemmink on April 09, 2004, 04:54:46 PM
Hallo, my A3000T got me quite worried now.
It ran fine with an MKII060 @ 60MHz for at least 2 years. Recently I had to rattle the tower before switching on to make him boot.
But now I don`t even get a grey screen anymore and the Power LED stays dim green. I belive this means something went wron during hardware checkup.
I have removed every card but nothing changed. When I remove the MKII (I think I don`t have to change jumpersettings when going back from a MKII060 to the onboard 030 right ?) and switch the machine on the build in speakers give me a lound BEEP that won`t stop. What does this mean ?
I removed every socketed chip an reseated it so there should be no contactproblems. Any suggestions what might be broken ? If wost comes to worst has anyone a working A3000T board for me ?

Hi

Here you find a desciption of the default jumper settings of an A3000T

You should set all jumpers to the positions specified here to use the build-in 68030.

Thanks, but the jumpers were right. The board is on the way to DCE for repair.

Which board ? The MKII060 or the A3000T-motherboard ? Does DCE repair motherboards ?

To DCE?? Well then you can forget to see that board again.
You should have sent it here (http://www.amiga.fr/)
