A1000 will not boot up
« on: August 12, 2008, 04:57:02 PM »
I have an A1000 that was working fine 6 years ago before it went into storage.  I just pulled it out and fired it up and all it does is flash it's red light every few seconds.  The disk drives do not run.  Ideas anyone?  Could it be the df0 drive?  I have an extra df1, can I replace the df0 with that?

I pushed down all of the chips and checked the connections, nothing seems to be loose.  I don't think I have a kickstart rom cause I used the kickstart disc to start it.

I have a second A1000 that also used to boot up, although the df0 stopped reading disks.  Can I exchange power supplies?
