A3000 Problems

Is it lines all the way through the image, or more random screen artifacts?  If it's random, it could be the A3000 U202/U203 PAL problem.

Buy an Amiga 2500 from eBay.  It is a much better computer then the Amiga 3000, much higher quality too.  You can usually get an Amiga 2500 on eBay for under $100.00.     :-D

I fail to see how your suggestion to buy a dinosaur like an A2500 will solve this persons problem.  Might as well tell him to buy an A500 then.

Does anyone know if the 3000 get's that "sync" signal from the PSU as the 2000 does? If not it might be easier to install a PC PSU.

HwB says that there is in fact a "tick" signal on one of the pins like other big box Amigas.

A quick look on deja and it looks like switching J350 to pins 2-3 will enable internal tick clock source (vsync).  Therefore, you should be able to use a PC power supply then.
