Hello
« on: March 25, 2004, 04:38:43 AM »
Well, after ten years without one, I finally have an Amiga 2000 again!  It's currently sitting on the desk behind me, getting used far less than I would like, due to the high-pitched whine of the 1084S.  I hope to find a solution to that problem soon.

My father got our A2000 back in '88.  This one seems much newer, as it has the amber HD light.  It's also got an '030, a larger SCSI hard drive, a second (unidentified) HD, a genlock (doubt that'll get used, it's missing the connectors), a TBC (ditto), and a Toaster 4000.  Now if only I could find a Flyer card, I'd be happy :)

Just need to get some parts and I'll be using the Amiga again!

Thanks, I'll have to try the "kocking" trick.

The problem is, I have two monitors set up right now, because the system came without the monitor cable.  The original 1084 used the 6-pin barrel connector, which the 1084S doesn't seem to have.

Further, the 1084 is only mono, and I don't have a stereo-to-mono joining cable.

So, I have two monitors: the 1084 provides color video, and the 1084S provides black-and-white video with stereo sound.

Kinda wonky, I know...
