My battery isn't leaking, because the clock still works, but I am aware of it. Thank you for reminding me.
Anybody knows how much the CIA cost? Could I use a chip from one of my other Amigas?
Just cos the clock works doesn`t mean the battery aint leaking...
Someone on the amiga hacks yahoo group gave a warning about leaking capacitors the other day, so it might be a good idea to strip it down to the bare motherboard so you can give it a proper all over inspection.
But as for the CIA chips, the 1200 and 4000 use suface mount components. Spares shouldn`t be that hard to find, I hope you`ve got a steady hand to do that intricate solder work !
