The problem with the AmigaOne XE is likely to be the battery alright. With my AmigaOne SE, I've also found that the battery runs down very quickly if the system is left unplugged (the SE has more flaws than the XE however, so that may not apply for you).

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Re: A4000 CPU board replacement
« Last post by Boing-ball on March 09, 2026, 09:03:39 PM »
Hello all
I had my A4000 wonderfully repaired by mr Giants who did incredible work.

But unfortunately, it turns out that my CPU board (040-25) is dead...
I was wondering if you could give me some advice about what I could replace it with ?
Speed is not really important, but cost is more.

I sadly understand that there is no pistorm option for the 4000. Could I expect it to happen in some time ?
Or are there other modern alternatives I could use ?
Or am I stuck to period hardware. 030 ? 040 ? 060 ? I'm not sure about what would be compatible without costing me a leg.
I did some google search, but i'm not sure about what I really need.

I would be very happy if you could give me some advice.
Thanks

Plenty of options now available.

You can actually buy a re-Amiga version of the 68040 CPU board or there is the Terriblefire (TF4060).
If you are looking for something similar to a PiStorm there is the Z3660 which can be used with either a 68060 CPU or with a Z-Turn FPGA board. This card features a lot extras. But as with anything new. Be prepared to be a BETA tester.

I have now found what I was looking for, it is Epoch Master.
If anyone wants to try it out it can be found on the Assassins Office Helper 2 disk. ;)

You're lucky, because amigadiary is approaching end of life :

4. (Not a bug) I never expected people to want to insert entries
            in the past, so I made the lookup date routine add 2000 to the
            year if it was less than 90. It would seem, however, that
            if you were keeping records or something then you might want
            entries in previous years. Now, only years less than 30 are
            21st century. Any others go to 20th century, so for example if
            you entered 69 it would become 1969, not 2069. This means the
            diary can be used up until 2030. If anyone is still using it
            after that don't expect help from me!

No it wasn't that graphical, it was very much very workbench button based.

Avalon 1 Teleport-Elevator
https://drive.proton.me/urls/VVFRQQD1Y8#7o3xEZn32M61

The Avalon 1 is a multi-level starship. To move between floors, you don't use stairs or a normal elevator - you use a teleport-elevator.
Find the platform with the green LEDs. When you step on it, the system activates and instantly teleports you to the upper or lower deck.

Reset Signal seems to be fine. I will get the cable for the serial output and do additional measurements and report back.

Happy almost St. Patrick's Day, C= and Ami aficionados!
     The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 2:30+ p.m., Sunday, March 15, at

  Panera Bread Restaurant
  3590 W. Shaw Ave. (corner of W. Shaw Ave. and Marty Ave.)
  Fresno, CA 93711
  (559) 271-0104
  http://www.dickestel.com/meet_loc.htm

      April is coming up fast, and the Commodore Los Angeles Super Show is on the 25-26th of that month.  If you have any ideas for CLASS presentations and exhibits, please tell them to us at the FCUG meeting!
      In hardware, the Mega65 (Commodore 65 enhanced replica) returns after being away for some time!  Of course, we will look at some of its game/demo/application software found at https://files.mega65.org/html/main.php  (Check out that C128 emulator for the Mega65!)  The A600GS returns, and we'll look at some of the newest software (like Strike Force Omega) and some of the classic software (like 3-D CAD programs).

         Truly,
         Robert Bernardo
         Fresno Commodore User Group -
