Tuesday night I was reading up to see what it might take to revive either of my Amiga
1200?s. As it happens, both appear to have fairly common failure modes. In reading up on
the dead video, I learned that it?s often on the Composite Out, but not the monitor. I
bought these two systems around ?97/98. I plugged the one with the dead video into the
Monitor I?m using, and proceeded to use it for about an hour and a half. It works great
with the Gotek floppy emulator.
On a whim, earlier today, when I placed the order with AmigaKit for A3000 batteries, I
included the hardware needed to put a IDE-to-CF interface in both the A600 & an A1200,
PLUS, a second Gotek. :-) It looks like I?m going to need them. :-)
