Hello and welcome.

I, like you, was absent for a number of years.

My interest was rekindled with the Emulator scene and then with the purchase of a 4000D of EBAY FCUK!!!!

I was sold a bit of a duff that I've now eventually got working correctly.

Battery had leaked and the sound was knackered. Both now sorted out by myself after learning a few tricks on the different Amiga user sites.

Just a work of caution - check out that battery on a regular basis if you've got the original type of battery fitted. They can and do leak and bugger up your motherboard.

Tim,

Don't forget that the same goes for your 2000 and any 500+ if you have any.

Thanks again for the feedback, it is nice to know that someone is listening. Nobody outside in the 'real' world gives a 'bleep' about the Amiga anymore. :-P

You're right about the outside world - you just need to find the right people out there. There are a few around that still offer repairs - although I found it more fun finding the information on the different Amiga sites and carry out the repairs myself   :crazy:
