I attached my 2.5" hard drive to my FastATA in my 1200 but with only one row of pins connected....oops. I turned it on...."black screen. But why?"
Rebooted...same black screen. Hmmm, time to double check connections....yep, I must have been tired or blind. Luckily no damage was done.
Another time, I picked up my 1200 with apollo1260 in trapdoor, no trapdoor cover either - so it was sort of hanging down for a few seconds....I was really worried about that, but again, seemingly no damage done! I feel lucky not to have damaged anything in both incidents.
I also mistakenly shorted the 5v to somewhere when playing around with something in my 1200 case...screen went black. I had all goodies attached, prelude, fastata, apollo1260, squirrellscsi.....I was preparing for the worst - again, no damage done. :lol:
