Problem with an A1200
« on: November 08, 2010, 11:14:31 PM »
After remembering that there was an A1200 in the attic I had 5 minutes only to test it tonight and imediatley noticed that the disk drive LED doesn't work. From memory it did work until I took the machine apart to fit a 3.5"HD. The wires going to the PCB are all connected, anyone have any idea how to test if it's the motherboard or the LED unit itself?

I'm wanting to set this machine up as well as the A4000 to be a WHDload machine with an indivision and one of the new accelerators that are on the way.

Thanks,

Robert

HI Save,

If memory serves there is only one way the connector can go, but I'll double check it later. Can plugging it in the wrong way cause any damage?
