 John, the problem is other: without the 060 accelerator the Workbench will refuse to boot (special 060 libraries, remember?).

 Holding the two mouse buttons when powering up the Amiga brings the Early Startup Control screen? If so, it's just a case of put back the accelerator.

 In worst case scenario, your PSU is gone.

 Things to do:

 - Change the capacitors, it's a good thing to do, always!

 - Hack an AT/ATX pc PSU using the Amiga power cord. How to do? Go for Ian Stedman's Amiga page!

 - Check carefully if you didn't break the resistors near the RGB video port (they crack and burn quite easily!)
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.
