no power to A1200

:-(
i thought the PSU was dodgy, and thats why the 1200 wouldnt get any power going to it. No little yellow lights and no funny noises.
But I found another PSU and tried that, the same problem.

I plugged in the PSU to the A500+ and it booted up, so the PSU works.

The problem is now, why doesnt the amiga 1200 get any power?
How common is this problem? anyone else had it guys? anyone out there that could diagnose this problem?

I am going to open up the machine and take out the accelerator and see if it boots without it.

apart from that i dont have a clue :-(

I HOPE ITS NOT DEAD!

Hi guys,

i opened her up and found a harddrive in there too.
so i unplugged the harddrive and she boots.

so either a faulty harddrive or not enough power to run the harddrive, accelerator, floppy and mainboard?

yeegads, the PSU says 25W
it also says PSU A600 BSI on the back.

eeek
