WTT: Have NTSC A1000, want PAL A1000!

[SJBUK]

A long-shot I know but I have an NTSC A1000 (with step-down tranny) that I intend to convert to UK spec over time. However, on the off-chance there's someone out there who wants to go the other way I thought I'd see if anyone wants to trade and save me a lot of time and effort :-D

I'm also open to buying a broken PAL A1000 for the parts.

(Edited as I got title the wrong way around!)

New Agnus, clock crystal and PSU at least I think.

I'm thinking I can source the Agnus and crystal from a scrap A500. The PSU will be a bit trickier to source I suspect!  

[SJBUK]

I stand corrected, it is the 8367 Agnus I'd need which is, as you say, 1000 and 2000 specific.

Well, I can but hope! If all else fails I'll stump up for a european A1000 if I can find one at a good price and sell the US one.

[SJBUK]

Cheers mate, will bear that in mind  :-)

[SJBUK]

Now have a 240v PSU, so interested in the 8367 if it's still going :-) You have PM.

Cheers,
Steve

You were repairing Amigas all those years ago? I'd have liked that job :-)

Will be happy to reimburse you for postage and throw in enough for a pint, thanks for taking the time to pull it out.

Cheers,
Steve

Well, finally got round to putting the PSU and agnus in. The machine boots but I appear to have no video out, presumably because I've not replaced the clock yet.

I tried an A520 but get no video out of that with either Agnus. All good fun!

[SJBUK]

I meant the crystal :-)

The machine sounds like it's booting, seems to get through Kickstart load and then WB OK. I was hoping to use my newly bought CYP 345S but the flippin RGB cable I have is not wired up correctly and it thinks it's getting a SECAM signal  :roll: Can't modify the cable either, doesn't have all the pins :-(

Amigas really can be a PITA!

[SJBUK]

Hello mate, got a new cable today and it seems to work fine, so will have another bash at the A1000 later in the week.

I've spent all night trying to get the flippin Z-3i to play ball in the Micronik tower so haven't had time tonight. That's the trouble with old kit, never know what your getting!
