I'm composing this message on an Amiga 3000
that had its motherboard
upgraded from 16 Mhz to 25 Mhz. Ever since the upgrade I occasionally get a
video crash that makes the screen unreadable. But, the system keeps running
OK. For example, if that video crash were to occur while I'm typing this
message, I've learned that hitting right-Amiga and 'S' will save the message
so I can finish the message after re-booting the A3000.
Sounds like the two PAL ic on the left side, under any zorro cards you may have
installed, they have a nasty habit of running hot, and makingen the screen
unreadable.
I changes mine and at the sametime removede the batteri for the RTC as it
was leaking.

vendor problem or not. In the end, I bought a new set from a C= reseller.

A friend of mine tells me that the A3000 PALs were of a particularly fast
kind. He's been having a lot of troubles sourcing them.

En ligne avec Thor 2.6a.
Kimagure Orange Road inneh?ller v?ldigt mycket ton?rsromantik, extremt mycket
ton?rsromantik faktiskt. Men det ?r samtidigt en av de st?rsta klassikerna
inom shojo, kanske till och med den absolut st?rsta.

Yeah. They're something fast - 15ns or 7.5 ns or something horrendous
like that. Not 25ns for sure.
Don't know where you'd get a set now. Mine were purchased over 5 years
ago. Might be easier to find an A3000 to pull that set from.
