A1200 powers up but won't boot
« on: February 16, 2010, 06:35:28 PM »
I have an A1200 I pulled out of the closet and powered up but no luck with booting it so far.

The screen displays a dark grey colour and the HD tries to spin up but seems to be locked in an endless cycle of trying to spin up. Removing the HD did nothing. The floppy also does nothing.

Are there any common things to look for? Bad caps? Maybe a fuse?

The board has been sitting idle for many years now.
