How to not burn a A1200 tower and PPC Board
« on: March 18, 2007, 12:25:32 PM »
Hello Amigos,
I am waiting for a Tower case and I succeeded buying a Blizzard PPC 603e+ /160MHzes on ebay has been sold me without memory, now the problem is to to find a memory.
I only have 16 MB.
I have found a guy that has banquets of 128 MB and it told me in few words how to feed power to the the disc drive.. etc
Honestly  I have not understood .
I'm gonna paste you what told to me :

Hi again, when you use to tower then The guesses you macaws using to busboard and in that houses the Amiga board will get plenty of power. If not then you need to supply the A1200 board with power on both the power supply connector and also supply power to the floppy power connector. The have read on Amiga.org that burdens people fried their board by just using to BPPC and no extra power cable to the floppy power connector, even with only 16 Mb Ram.


Now I wonder me and I ask you (kindly if you answer me)

1) when the tower arrives to me I would like  tower up  1200 before without accelerator, woudl the PSU feed the motherboard and the floppy?

2) I am right if I test the accelerator board with 16MB before installing 128 MB that according to the seller would suck a lot of power on an Amiga 1200 desktop?

3) How can I feed Blizzard PPC 603e with the Tower?

4) What to do yo not "to fry" everything?
 

I am scaring!

Help Please!

Thanks    

:crazy:

I wanna only specify that the tower I have to use would be D-BOX 1200 MKII that I am waiting from AmigaKit!
Do I need more than the electricy already supllied by the default PSU?

thanks
