I just got an A3000 mainboard in to repair that looks like a train ran it over it. The Paula chip has some real bad solder work done on the underside of the board. I dont trust it at all just looking at it.
Can a Paula chip from any other model work as long as its the same chip package, like an A500 version for example? I see lots on ebay that are listed as A500/A500+
yes, 500,2000,3000 paula are all the same.
