040 a1200 fan recomendation?
« on: October 23, 2011, 07:49:09 PM »
Hi there.

I am feeling the need to get my a1200 up and running again.

One hurdle is a keyboard! I know i have 2 a1200 keyboard but i do not know if i have the plastic bit that keeps them in place anymore!

However I think I can probably work this one out. Howwver advice on alternatives would be nice.

My main concern is the fan on my 040 board. Or more to the point the lack of it!

I know it had some sort of small stick on one on it. However thet has fallen off. i did work with some sort of elastic stapped on one for a bit but I think was never a good idea!

I'm sure such a small fan these days is pretty cheap. But on such a board what would I stick one on with. Any recomendations?

Cheers.

Hi,

Thought I would dig up my old thread again since I have finally been in the loft and dug out my amiga hardware so actually have more of an idea now.

I also bought an a500 to play some old games on as well!

Right to the 040 board.

It says Blizzard 1260 REV II. I guess this means it is a 1240 then! (MC68040RC40M) The crystal is 80mhz so I guess this is a 40mhz cpu?

Not tried it yet but after getting the a500 and playing a few classic it has spurred me on to see what I can do out of my other hardware!

So again please any advice on how I should cool this thing? I remember it haveing a stick on fan origionally but that fell apart.

Cheers.
