Making my Amiga 500 a running machine
« on: April 29, 2004, 11:05:38 AM »
Hello,

I have standing here an Amiga 500 without adapter, without cables. Is it posseble to connect an AT power supply to the Amiga? And is it possible to connect the RGB exit to a PC monitor? Otherwise to a SCART cable? And can I make a paralell / serial network with my Amiga <-> PC? And most of all: where can I find information on how to do this (datasheets, PDF, HTML...)???

You do need the DB-23 for the video.


a what? They don't say that in those documents :S They say it's a syncdoubler, and when I read, they say it's for connecting the rgb out to a vga monitor! :S

when I read that, that's a way to make a syncdoubler YOURSELF, isn't it?

Damn, I can't open the *.pic files, not with Paint Shop Pro or anything :-( Is there a special viewer or something??? (for the PC ;-))

Don't have money for that you know. Also no money for an Amiga 1200, I'm 15 years old you know (yes and I wanna use Amiga :-D), my pocket money is 20 euro per month and I just bought an expensive MiniDisc Player  :-)  So I wanna try to fix the old Amiga 500 ;-)
