I received my Amiga 4000T and I am facing a problem with it...

A real 4000tower or 4000desktop made into a tower would not bring up a kickstart pic.
If the hard drive has lost it's boot sector, it would show a insert workbench disk.

If the hard drive is corrupted, just put in a workbench disk.
If it's a 4000Desktop, it should boot from the floppy.
If it's a real 4000Tower, you will need a 4000T workbench (as it needs wb.libs)

Just to point out that you really, really, really! need to terminate the 4000 SCSI bus... if you don't the system will hang at boot.

There is a built-in terminator in the mouse/keyboard print at the back of the case. Maybe the SCSI ribbon cable came loose from that?

Try removing the drives from the SCSI cable and have it run from the motherboard to the terminator. If you then turn on the system you should be greeted with the famous kickstart 3.1 screen...

Once again. No 4000 will show a KICKstart pic. Kickstart is in rom.
What you should see is a insert Workbench disk screen.

BTW, if this is a 4000Desktop that has been placed in a tower.
It has ide connector on the motherboard.
If it has scsi, it must be a add-in.

If you're going to sell this please show us a pic!

After reading your previous messages and looking at the pictures in the bay selling links.
You need a crash course in amiga.
The quote 1200 with highflyer endquote is a 4000Desktop in an expansion case.
the tower is also a 4000Desktop in another expansion case. The scsi drives might be flyer drives. Not system drives.

The amiga does not know cd drives without add-on software, several version available.
So...go step by step to make sure the basic machines are working.
It's possible that the external box was configured to be a system drive and cd drive.
It might have lost it's booting software?
good luck

I visited the ebay link as invited.
I noticed several problems.

The 516 audio picture is in fact a newtek flyer.
The scsi card picture is in fact a newtek flyer...

If you have amiga items to sell, PLEASE identify them correctly!

amiga.org users please note, the ebay listing are INCORRECT !!!

BTW, the pics are terrible! Use flash!

At first I sold the A4000T to this guy on eBay and now he is screwing me over and he wants the video toaster instead. Arrgh!! it is a big lose. So I cancelled the posting for the video toaster waiting patiently for him to confirm it. But he does not want the Amiga 4000T anymore, if you guys are interested in the Amiga 4000T I will be more than happy to sell it to you guys.

Personally I just want the A1200D to work correctly it have a 68030 on it with 16 MB of RAM (sweet). I am waiting for my next cheque to arrive to pay the 2.5" HD I bought then I am going to have fun with her....I LOVE YOU AMIGA 1200D (sings)!! The disk drive is too old so it dies and return back working and then dies. It does not matter I have two external disk drives and they work just fine booting OSs and games.

So please guys buy this computer off my hand!!
