Finally got an Amiga 3000

[puffy5]

I have to agree the A3000 was my favorite Amiga. I have a A4000T 060 but have not spent much time with her. We haven't bonded yet. My old A3000 had three hard drives crammed into her. Two double stacked behind the floppy and one in the second floppy bay. She ran for years that way till one day as I was going to show her off to a friend... green screen. I have another A3000 but its not my baby. I've fell to the dark side of windows and now surround myself with Amiga memorabilia   and recall the fun of yesterday. My fondest Amiga memories are with the A3000.

All removable ram taken out. One meg of known good dip? chips put in for fast ram. No dice, green screen. It's thought that maybe one of the soldered in memory chips is faulty.

Didn't try the CIA-A chip. Didn't think that had anything to do with a video error. The Agnus was replace with a known good one and the socket was replaced that didn't help. I had damaged the socket in the past. Hans did the work. His work looks nice but I still get the green screen.

 This just indicates bad RAM (two possible causes):

 A zip chip popped out of its socket;

 Bad CIA-A.
