a3000 - keyboard, clock acting funny....

[sTix]

hi all!

the clock has stopped ticking in my a3000 and my
keyboard sometimes acts really funny... my guess
is that there must be some kind of problem with
one (or both) of the cia-circuits...

i have two questions:

1. am i right when im blaming the cias?

2. i wonder if its possible to replace these
circuits in my a3000 with the cia (8520) from
an a500?

i read about the cia on www.amiga-hardware.com
and if i understood right this (8520) is the
chip used in all amiga models.

i would be glad if any of you knew
anything about this.....

yes, its the clock that is
ticking while the machine
is on that is dead.
scheduling etc. doesnt work
anymore...

well, im gonna slaughter one
of my a500s then!

(just in case)...and

it WORKS!!! yihah!!

thanks once more!
