A600 woes

[leofoe]

I've got a Vampire!:p
But now I have a problem with my A600! :angry:
Every boot the computer has a delay. The colder the Amiga, the longer the delay. During the delay, the CapsLock led is on.
So, when I switch on the Amiga in the morning, the delay could be 30 or more seconds. If I leave it on the CapsLock led will eventually go off. After some more seconds, the A600 will boot. A reboot also always has a delay of about 8 seconds.
Now, all these symptoms are with or without the Vampire.

FYI: this Amiga is recapped with ceramic capacitors. But it didn't show this behaviour right after the recap. It has been about a year and a half in storage since.

Hope someone has an idea.

As far as I can recall it DID show this behaviour BEFORE the recap. It was the main reason to recap! :idea:

In the meantime I have dug out another A600, that not yet has been recapped. This one works flawlessly with and without the Vampire and the same PSU.
And what's more: at last I could pop the Vampire on the CPU rock solid for the first time. It always was a mess with a non starting A600, having to push the Vampire before it would do anything or giving a green or yellow display. This very problem I also had with the Vampire V1.

Now the question is: what can be wrong with the recapped A600? I will try to resolder the CPU. Anything else I should take care of? In a thread on EAB I read that this behaviour would be a capacitor problem.

I resoldered the 68000: no change.

@Accill: Tried that, no change.

@paul1981: Tried that also, no change.

@Tenacious: If I only easily could find out which one!
