Amiga 1200 does not work

[danbeaver]

To check the voltage you need a voltameter, but a multimeter will allow you to check the continuity of connections.

If you don't feel comfortable with all this, then perhaps you should send it to someone (like Amigakit) for repair.

Looks like Amigakit [will] only repair [something] if you have bought it from them.

Anyone else?

Amigakit will repair anyone's Amiga if you pay them; they may repair one of their own sales for free.

When Anthony Hoffman is not on his vacation lounging in the sun repairing the electronics in the sub-zero weather of the Antarctic, he does an excellent job of diagnosing and repairing Amigas with a very short turn around time (he is not free either, nor is he available until September).

Place an add for repair services, or look for offered services on Amibay.

I've used Charles at Maccaps on working motherboards (he is fast and does a good job), but he can not diagnose and repair Amigas (Macs, yes).

And I just guessing that if reseating ROMs is anxiety provoking, then troubleshooting an eBay purchase might be overwhelming; well purchasing anything from eBay is pretty much a sucky experience IMHO.

Oh, if I read the post right you asked from an address, possibly for Anthony Hoffman; he will be back in September and will be free to work on Amigas after he repairs/recaps 3 of my motherboards and 3 A3640's (+/- a Warp Engine).

Info: Anthony Hoffman   He has a web site and is on this forum as Castellen
