The Commodore VGA adaptors were more than just cabling. There was also a chip inside. Run the machine with a normal RGB cable to a 1084 (or similar) or a TV through the composite port. Is everything okay? Then your VGA cable is probably faulty.

Yes,but I have the problem described when connected via composite video-out too.

Oh. Yeah, that's probably a problem on the motherboard. Clean up and replace the capacitor if you can. If not, time to ring up a repair shop.

From what I remember reading, Amiga.fr (which no longer resides at that address, but is still around; check links page) does Amiga repairs, as does Mr. Hardware in New York.
