« on: August 03, 2004, 03:34:33 AM »
Hello

Im new member of this forum and I registered here for hoping to get an answer to my problem

here's the case..

I have a amiga 600 (without HD)
and ofcourse my amiga happens to be broken.
Im getting a flashing yellow screen when I turn the machine on.

I know that it is a amiga error message, but what does it mean?

Im a technician and so I know some electronics if someone could kindly prowide me a quick and Simple answer maybe even instructions how to fix this.

Thankyou in advance

sometimes I get yellow screen sometimes it remains light gray and now it has been doing this..

The system boots the gray colors change but when the kickstart should appear the screen fades to black and stays that way..

does that sound any familiar?

Thankyou wery wery much all of the help and tips you prowided!


I tried all of those options

without result..
 I've tried different kickstart etc.. nothing.

Maybe I take my solder iron and heat up those solder pads if there were any bad ones.. :)

Thanks for your help :)

but I therw that A600 away and brought amiga 500 back to alive since it's much more realible machine and has never failed me before :)


but now I have a another question..

is there any possibility to attach PC floppy drive into amiga?  is there anything I could modify the floppy drive to fit amiga?

Since that old Drive what I've got in amiga 500 is pretty wornout.. I did clean it but still it's old :(


so is there even a slight change to get pc floppy drive working in amiga 500 motherboard..


thanks in advance

-Clive

uhh.. well I kinda did and it worked fine.. for sometime untill I started to clean the A600 floppy but then it stopped working..

dunno was it me or did it just broke by it self..

anyways the a600 floppy just makes click sounds and when I put disk in it spins and clicks thats all it wont load..

damn.. I should have lef that a600 drive alone :)

but is it possible to fit new pc drive to a500?
sorry about such newbie questions


 and yeah I did not throw those a600 parts away just put them back to closet :)
