What does the text say in the CLI window just before Workbench loads? Also, I couldn't see from the video but is the power LED on the A1200 repeatedly dimming and brightening when it's stuck on the black screen?

Not sure what the text is. I thinks its somthing to do with an assign for a program ive moved/deleted, or for the AmiTCP bootup.

Im using an aftermarket Technoplus PSU to power it! I did have the golitath but the -5v went and the power light would just flash and screen go black.

First of all, comment out the "endcli" from the end of your Startup-Sequence by putting a semicolon at the beginning of the line. That will leave the window there and allow you to read the text to make sure it's not relevant to your problem.

If that doesn't turn anything up, boot with no startup-sequence and type "setpatch" then press enter and post any errors or hang you get.

Mine is now doing this too. Is this normal for a flash disk? It's a minor hassle but just a tad annoying.
