A1200 Power supply problems
« on: August 08, 2003, 09:56:22 AM »
My 60 Watt PSU has problem to power my Amiga 1200 with 2GB notebook HD, Blizzard 1260 with 128 MB of ram and a SCSI-kit.

The PSU has to turn on and off twice before the power led light up.
 
If I use the same PSU with my other Amiga 1200 with 1 GB HD, Blizzard 1230 IV with 48 MB of RAM and SCSI-kit then it works directly.

How do I fix this problem?

At the main time I use my weaker A500 PSU.

Also, you may want to open your A1200 and see what revision it is.

I had a similar problem with my CSA 12 Gauge fitted.  Would only turn on around 1 in 10 goes.  Then I did the mod (for Rev 1.D.4 which I have) and all is good, running on standard A500 PSU


I tried my Blizzard 1260 in two Amiga 1200's. A Commodore 1d4 and an Escom 1d4? I am using an A500 PSU without problems. When I use it with the 60 Watt PSU, it won't work. If I put my old Blizzard 1230 IV in these machines with the 60 Watt PSU, it will work immediately.

I will consider the fix you told me.
