Acill's Amiga Repair Thread

[magnetic]

Guys I can attest to Acill's care and commitment and skills. He does top notch work and charges very little (he is underpaid actually lol) but he cares so much for the amiga community and restoring these machines! We are lucky to have his services in usa!

Go Acill GO!!!!

Acill does excellent work and has a very nice work studio and workbench with good equipment. He cares about the job and does the best he can. He capped a 3640 for me and repaired a video card with broken cap. Thanks! Good work!

Guys: Paul is amazing. The work he does is very top notch!

Sorry kirk i misunderstood

These amiga websites banning people left and right are absurd. The power hungry losers that run alot of amiga sites need to get a life.

Good job Acill!

I honestly dont get what magic they do with that EXT jumper. The 3000 one acts very strange too. I know you have to have it set of the CPU card uses its own oscillator, but other times you dont use it as if using an A3630.

.

Lol its not "magic" its pretty definitive. Some boards need the clock to come from the mb crystal some have onboard crystal. For ex. the 3630 must use the 4000 mb crystal as it does not have one of its own. The 3640 has onboard crystal so the jumper is set accordingly.

Now I can use SuperBuster 11 properly (needs a 25MHz machine, regardless of whether you have a processor card added) with my BigRam and X-Surf-100.  There is a known malfunction of the X-S-100 when used on a 16MHz A3000 that also has a SuperBuster-11 in it, according to Jens.

Thanks, Paul, for excellent work again.

awesome! you have a super nice rare amiga there! That part about people telling u to just move the jumper made me lol. how dumb.. Good work as always Paul!

Nothing said, they can know my job assignment as far as I am concerned. I just want to make sure people understand why things are delayed. You are right though on the context of your concerns. I cleaned it up a bit after looking at what I said.

TO ANYONE COMPLAINING ABOUT SLOW SERVICE: YOU SHOULD BE LUCKY TO HAVE THIS GUY WORKING ON YOUR EQUIPMENT.

Send your repairs to UK back and forth and see how long repairs take. How anyone can complain about Pauls work is beyond me. Ungrateful. The US community is lucky to have him
I have personally seen him spend all kinds of extra times on boards to "get it right" without charging. People not wanting to pay for repairs after he wastes time diagnosing (with no fee)
