Happy, Happy, Joy Joy...
« on: January 08, 2008, 11:24:52 AM »
Well, after searching my whole house for the longest time I managed to find my Amiga 2000 keyboard, mouse and A520, now I have a question.  I also own an Amiga 500.  The drive on my A2000 seems to have gone to drive heaven, will the drive from my A500 work on the A2000?

Wow, it's been about 2 years since I used my real miggys, I hope it's still alive!  :)  It' an A2000 in a tower and 68040/33 I believe.  Last time I checked it I think I had managed to get OS 3.9 working.

Thanks.

Yes it will, you'll just have to pick the faceplate of your A2000 one to give it to the A500 one (just pray for it to be the same kind of chinon floppy ;-))

Don't forget to have a look at the clock's barrel battery of the A2000 (near the keyboard connector) and change the original NiCad for a Ni-MH (Nickel-metal) 3,6v 60mA one, this NiMh does not leak with time.
