I bought one of the same kind recently. It will technically work in a 1200, but... be warned. If you keep your Amiga in its original case , the place where this board clips on is right under the hard drive. You can't fit the hard drive in the case if you use this flicker fixer... at least, not in its normal location. I'm still looking for a way to fit it in there because I don't want to towerize my 1200.
If you have a towerized 1200 (or 4000) or can rearrange where your hard drive fits (or if youre using a flash to IDE thing) it gives OK video. On my VGA monitor it has some slightly annoying vertical lines, but maybe thats just the LCD monitor I'm using. When I have time to figure out how the hell to fit both the flicker fixer and hard drive in my 1200, I'm gonna try it on a non-LCD monitor.
If I cant figure out how to fit it all in there, I'll be selling one too haha.
I'd really really like to get a better model (preferably external) that can be used on more kinds of Amigas. Preferably with a clearer display too.
It can be done... IIRC, the drive will sit right on the internal metal shielding, and you just eliminate the stock drive caddy. I had the DCE internal SD/FF, IDE-Fix "Express" module, and IDE drive all inside the stock casing. (All those hacks gave my A1200 a real "ghetto-rig" feel, LOL.)
