Attention dead A600 owners:
Don't throw away a black screen A600 because you think it's completly dead. I sent one such 'dead' m/b to JJ at Amiga Center and even he said it wasn't repairable...maybe couldn't be bothered with it (who knows). 'Hmmm' I thought; let me have a go at it. Low and behold I replaced one of those nefarious leaking silver capacitors near the floppy drive port, plugged the board in to test and 'poof' I was staring at the animated floppy disk insert screen.
Wonder, if that's causing the black screen on my A500... :idea:
