The info I first found (can't find it now  :( ) put the A1200NG way below other offerings

What other offerings?

A600GS & A1200NG / Power comparison
« Last post by J-Golden on November 12, 2025, 11:45:54 PM »
I've been trying to find some side-by-side comparisons of the A1200NG to other stand alone systems.  The info I first found (can't find it now  :( ) put the A1200NG way below other offerings, but with the proposed Turbo card, it will be much faster than anything else.

Has anyone put together such a comparison?

Thanks for this.  I don't know why but having it called A600GS felt wrong.  It would be nice if going forward Amiga Kit updated this for each of their systems, to include the upcoming A4000 system.

It would be nice if they made it editable in network settings. I get that the firmware for the two machines is the same.... but...

Now the A600GS logo'd work drive in Amibench is irritating..... lol.

Amiga Hardware Issues and discussion / Amiga 2000 rev 6 need some help tracking strange problem

G'day from Australia,

I am attempting to repair an A2000 board for a mate that has been looked at by several people before me.
When I got it it was in the following state...  Original Elec Caps, someone had replaced Gary socket, and corrosion was evident on CPU and ROM sockets.  CPU socket was also mangled from third party under CPU add ons.
Would boot to Light Yellow/olive screen.  CPU would NOT fire and no serial output from Diag ROM.

I replaced CPU and Rom sockets, tracked a dry.cracked trace to from CPU E to gary. Have checked all Commodore Chips and replaced with known good.  This got unit booting with Diagrom.  Ran Memory Diagnostics and all passed, IRQ passes, BUT during CIA testing on EVEN CIA fails at TICK/Vsync test and crashes with illegal instruction.

I have attached Pictures....  cant cat exact moment Even Vsync test dies, but it is as soon as it starts.

Real world symptoms when i put kickstart in, is unit will boot to insert floppy, but floppy drive clicks twice and returns to insert disc.

So, I have desoldered and checked the memory, also replaced with other known good....  No Change

Desoldered all logic I could see associated with Floppy, so U108,U203,U900,U303 and even U204 amp.  Checked in TL866 and all fine.

Any ideas from the boffins would be appreciated before I start desoldering everything.

Thanks
Paul In Australia...

Workbench 1.3.2 and  3.2 aren't compatible. And which kickstart do you have - it defines the Workbench version to be used.

Well, yes. But 3.2 crashes with the SCSI drive attached. I have kickstart 3.1.

In hostname ?

changes the name of your system in network settings. Minor irritation that my A1200ng was called A600gs on my network  ;D

Picture attached shows A1200ng on my router as A1200ng
