keyboard faillure
« on: December 03, 2010, 05:14:41 PM »
Hello,
I have an Amiga 1200 with hard disk in...
After many years I try to restart it, but the workbench do not start. So in this forum you told me to boot the Amiga...and then execute a reset with alt Amiga...
But this step don't works, the keyboard seem to be out of order. Is there any thing I can do to check?
Can i bye an other Keyboard?

Thanks a lot

Hello
yes sorry
I try with this 3 keys..ctrl and both A
Now I have a doubt...must I press the 3 keys at the same time??
Ok I'll retry this evening.
About the 3 questions:

Do you have the kickstart screen?
Yes

Can you boot from any floppy?
I don't know I have 0 floppy left...

About the keyboard, does the caps lock lit?
yes

Thanks

Hello
I think the keyboard if OFF because, when I boot for the first time with the DC Switch, the Amiga boot ok...the hard disk start turning (I can hear it).
Then after maybe 10 seconds, the screen with the (insert disk anumation) appears.
So at this point, I try the reset with ctrl+A+A but nothing occurs.
This evening I'll try again, but I'm affraid about keyboard status.

Thanks
