FS: A2000 & A3000
« on: November 19, 2008, 10:39:08 PM »
As part of my drive to slim down my classic hardware collection, I'm going to be putting the following items up on eBay in a few days.  I've just finsihed cleaning, testing and re-installing the following machines:

A2000 rev 6.2
ECS Chipset with PAL/NTSC 1MB Fat Agnus (currently set for PAL)
1MB Chip RAM, 8 Fast RAM
Kickstart 3.1
1 x DSDD Floppy Drive
GVP 68030+SCSI+RAM board (68040 @ 40MHz, 68882 FPU, SCSI, 8MB RAM (Max 16MB)
A2320 "Amber" Scan Doubler (fitted in video slot)
1GB SCSI Hard Drive
CD ROM drive SCSI in 5.25" bay

A3000 rev 9
ECS Chipset with 2MB Agnus (Jumper set for NTSC)
2MB Chip RAM, 4MB Fast RAM (on mobo)
Kickstart 3.1
2 x DSDD Floppy Drives
68030 @ 25MHz on motherboard
CBM A3640 rev 3.1 in CPU slot (68040 @ 40MHz + 68882 FPU)

Also:

CBM A2091 rev 4 Zorro 2 SCSI card with 2MB 16bit RAM fitted (tested)

Supra Corp Zorro 2 RAM card with 8MB 16bit RAM fitted (tested)

I tested the A2091 in the A2000 and booted off the SCSI hard drive and accessed the CD ROM drive from it.

I've used the 8MB RAM board in an A2000, A3000 and A4000 to provide extra RAM.  Remember that Zorro 2 machines are limited to the amount of RAM you add so if it was used with the 2MB A2091 then you would need to set the jumper to limit it to 6MB (jumpers can be set to 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8MB).

The 25MHz A3640 was taken from a working A4000 when I upgraded it to a 40MHz 68040.  A low profile heat sink was fitted to replace the original one so that it would fit under the A3000 floppy drives.

Now I'm busy cleaning up a couple of A1200s installed in Elbox/Power towers (one basic machine with keyboard adapter & HD and the other with a Power Flyer Gold, keyboard adapter, PCMCIA adapter, ethernet network card, CD ROM & HD).

I'll let you all know when they go on.  I'm trying to make sure that they're all Hard Drive supported machines that will run straight out of the box.  :-)
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.
