The CR model has pins for an external battery, like the A4000T...

I had one of these ( it was a "Video Toaster" model), no 68030 on board, had an A3640 with the capacitors actually installed correctly. It had a black screen when I got it, so I sent it off to Anthony Hoffman in NZ, but he was unable to fix it.


Odd you should add this post; I bought a CR version like the one above from someone I really trust who told me at least twice what a sweet motherboard it was.  I waited a month to get it tested and it is quite dead.  I am now waiting for Anthony to get back from the deep south in October to see what is wrong.

I found out later that the power supply was also bad in this system and wondered if it may have fried the board. I'm not sure what kind of over voltage protection those power supplies had. I also sent Anthony a "regular" 4000 board (bad caps, battery damage) at the same time, that he was able to fix.

I have used him for around five Amiga motherboards and a couple of A3640's; I am waiting to send him two more motherboards and 2 A3640's.  His technical reports are insanely detailed, you gotta love them!

It should, but you will need the Toaster hardware and software for the "full fairy land" experience of a  Video Toaster System.
