Looking for Blizzard PPC repair

[Plaz]

What Plaz was trying to explain (I think):

Yes. I was trying to make him feel welcome by using Russian, instead I think I insulted his sister. :-P

Best of luck with Amiga Centre.

I've been emailing them since December and still no reply.

He is apparently a wizard with hardware. I just wish he would answer emails.

[A6000]

As it is apparently the only service centre in the world, he must be too busy to answer Emails :lol:
OH, just remembered, Doomy does repairs, doesn't he?

[easy_john]

Sad day of my life.
AmigaCenter write, that restore a card is impossible.

Whether there Are still the people, capable to try to repair Blizzard PPC?

Whether It is possible to trust Amigacenter? Probably, what the board works also it wishes to leave it to itself?
Sorry, but i realy sad..

I do not know, whether I can buy now such accelerator, ebay price is too high for me...

[Boot_WB]

Sorry to hear about your dead Blizzard PPC :-(

Did Jean-Jacques (Amigacentre) give you any details of the tests he performed? Was he able to identify which component was causing the problems?

Regards

Was AmigaCenter able to explain the problem. Does he know what is broken on the accelerator?

No.
- Spent half a day on your board with no results.
- You find something, that not work? May be just buy 68060 and try to replace it?
- I do not think the 060 dead. I have not replace it cause of consuming time job.
- There are still any opportunities it to repair?
- Sorry but no way.

And at last, he say, that he can buy my board for 40eur or send it back for 60... a little strange. I send it to him for about 7 eur..

Привет!

Я еще думаю у тебя есть проблем с 68060.  Тебе надо очень
хорошо смотреть у процессора 68060 для трейшена с содерем.

Удачы тебе.

Пока

Hi.

sorry for your lose.


[color=ff0000]"- I do not think the 060 dead. I have not replace it cause of consuming time job."[/color]

[color=0000ff]Hmm?? this take you about 5 mins too do.[/color]


but, I asume that he know's that this is not the problem for this board.

Anywas, I'm not trolling aboute france repair senter, but he do charge a lot for jobs. and is hard too get any good answare from him, about what was wrong with the cards etc.

I know one who send him a cyberstorm ppc card.
He get his card fixed for 200 euro.. tok him only few hours to fix it.. and returned it.. But he did not answar about what was wrong with board...

As I said. I'm not trolling, just point this out.
I even have a cyberstorm mk II who have faulty ram board and some a4k motherboard I want to send him. (hope he not black list me now)

But I hope he can give me a good answare, when I ask for some tecnical questions as I'm intrested.

Sorry for bad english

Now Acube seems to be doing BPPC repairs too.

But they only replace the PPC-part, not 68k.

desoldering a 060 from a BPPC takes what?

Are you saying that it will only return you YOUR board paying 60 eur?!?!?
Someone can explain that?

I'd assume that he's saying: "I've spent time investigating the fault with your board, my times costs money, in this case Eur60". Now if you sell him the board for Eur40 he'll probably harvest the parts he believes are salvagable for repairing other peoples boards sent to him in the future.

Just a guess though.

Best of the OP to email him and find out if it's worth retrieving the board and sending it to ACube.

I belive it was CSPPC, and they have socket 060?
I'm sorry if that is wrong.
