Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / A1200 invisible mouse with floppy and HDD boot drops out
« Last post by PlatformerZ on February 24, 2026, 08:02:07 AM »
After fitting a D.K. Video Crisper RGB video buffer, which I hear is 15khz only; to the RGB port of my A1200 OS 3.9, before a Scandex doubler, I have no video signal; HDD activity stops, about when WB is loaded in startup.

I am using an external Scandex doubler to TFT monitor for both CGA and VGA modes. I tried a second Scandex and no change.

The Early boot menu shows but invisible mouse pointer. Floppy boot is the same.

From this thread: https://forum.amiga.org/index.php?topic=73237.0 I followed Oldsmobile Mikes' suggestion of swapping the ROM's for new ones and Accelerator card and PSU. Also disconnected mouse and Joystick. No Change unfortunately.  ???

Suggestions Welcome. TIA.

Hi,

Welcome to the forum!

That is a nice collection for sure! Please let us know how it goes with the 2500 and the monitor. The computer might have some neat upgrades under the hood. 8) And.. nice list of games there!

This should be largely fixed in the ext update.

Hey, this is excellent news!
I have now updated to the lastest version of AmiBrowser (46.38) and did some more testing. Here are the results:
  • NumPad9 reports as NumPad8
  • NumPad8 reports as ScrollLock
  • F11 reports as Backslash
  • INSERT reports as MetaLeft
  • HOME reports as MetaRight
  • END doesn't report at all
  • PageUp reports as ScrollLock, too
  • PageDown doesn't report at all
  • ScrollLock doesn't report at all
  • PRINT doesn't report at all
  • CapsLock doesn't seem to invoke "OnKeyDown" and "OnKeyUp" but with every keypress, it switches between the two (while "OnKeyPress" being with "OnKeyDown")
  • ESC closes the browser, even if event.preventDefault() is called (but I guess that's a bit of another issue)
When using a german keymap, some values for Z and Y are still reported switched, but not all. Let's take key Y (between T and U) as an example: It is correct, that "Code" always reports "KeyY", no matter the keymap of the OS, and this works correctly. But for "KeyChar" and "Key", all events should report a "Z" for a german keymap. Currently this works only for "Key" value of event "OnKeyPress" correctly, all other events still report a "Y".

I tested with two different keyboards, just to be sure. Both gave the same results.
Just as a sidenote: TAWS doesn't convert any keycodes back or forth. As this is not emulation but "simply" (haha) a web page.

Keep up the good work, just a few more little glitches to go! ;)

Cheers,
Michael

Congrats.  Have you tested the 2500? Might want to check the battery has been removed or replaced.

A600GS & A1200NG / Re: Issue with my Amigakit Order
« Last post by amigakit on February 23, 2026, 10:15:32 AM »
We have had a lot of orders for the A1200NG and we are building, configuring, flashing and testing each board in the sequence that customer placed the order with us.   Your board is assembled in the latest batch.  However it is just waiting to configure it for your specific needs.  At the same time we are developing a new system update - as you may have seen on the weekly updates we provide here.  The A1200 NG and A600GS are large projects that we are investing many hours into every week.   I am hopeful you will enjoy using the system.  Thank you for your patience.

A600GS & A1200NG / Issue with my Amigakit Order [Fixed]
« Last post by X-death on February 23, 2026, 06:53:21 AM »
Hello,

I would like to request a clear update regarding my Amiga 1200 NG order ( AK-21853 ? ) placed on November 24, 2025 to EUR.

Aside from the initial payment confirmation email, I have not received any official communication about the status of my order. In late December, I contacted AmigaKit privately and was informed that November orders were being processed at this time. Since then, there has been no further communication.

I fully understand that delays can happen, especially with specific hardware projects like this one. However, several months without any official update is concerning. Customers should reasonably expect transparent communication and at least an estimated delivery window.

The product itself looks very promising, but professionalism and customer experience are just as important as the hardware.

I respectfully ask for a clear status update and an estimated timeframe for delivery.

I am aware that it is not particularly pleasant to read this kind of message, and I also understand that a forum is not primarily intended to serve as a customer support or order tracking platform. However, posting here is also a way to seek transparency and share part of the user experience around the product.

My intention is not to be confrontational, but simply to obtain clarity and better visibility regarding my order.

Thank you in advance for your time and clarification.

Hi everyone!, I'm completely new to Amiga computers or any old-school computers in general, i figured joining a forum would be pretty useful!!

I currently have an Commodore Amiga 2500 w/ a 1084s Monitor that I got out of my grandparents house after she moved out. I'm not sure if it even works but its been kept in a room under protective covers and looks pretty brand new. I also got a Brother HL-630 Printer with it and the computer accessories.

Among that, there were also a tonnnn of manuals, pamphlets, programs, and games that came with it like,

AutoDesk CAD
Baud Bandit
Gizmos
Journey
Black Cauldron
Lemmings
Lost Dutchman Mine
Some Carmen Sandiego Games
Batman Caped Crusader

Thats a few of them but theres like way more. Thats pretty much it, I did some research already and I just joined to see the community as well as finding any information on this stuff. Thanks and nice meeting y'all!! :3

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Repairing a Buster socket
« Last post by David Wright on February 22, 2026, 08:54:52 PM »
As you can see in photo many lifted pads on my A4000 Buster socket.
Who in the U.S. can fix this? Chris Edwards has his hands full so I need to find someone.
