Hi Guys

After over 10 years repairing/selling Amigas I came across an early startup error screen i've never seen.

We have an A4000D here that when powered on gives a BLUE SCREEN and stops there... any idea what this means.

The commodore docs say blue = custom chips error but the machine was working fine before. I did notice there was a soldered lead from a capacitor to a leg on a small surface mount chip near the battery that came out..

FYI

All the Phase 5 high end accelerators show this "rainbow" effect during startup..
