A1000 Yellow screen
« on: September 13, 2007, 11:12:47 PM »
Hello,

I have an A1000 that gives me a yellow screen when going through the bootup check. Yellow is suppose to mean that the 68000 has found an error before the GURU error checking code was loaded. This is a pretty broad error I guess. I have tried reseating all of the socketed chip, as well as the daughter board, but still nothing.

I noticed that the screen turns yellow at exactly the same time the floppy drive grinds. Could a yellow screen be caused by a bad floppy drive?

Thanks

The funniest thing.... even though the screen is yellow, when I put the kickstart disk in, it still boots, and prompts for the workbench disk....

I thought that it prompts you for a kickstart as well, not a yellow screen....
