Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: A great deal of Amiga hardware is old--some more than 20 years now--and as such, is quite likely to fail in one or more ways. Even unused Amiga hardware can be affected just by sheer age/time. Considering the typical lifespan of a computer, the Amiga has done quite well!

Well that fixed for sure. Thanks a lot, Greg! I haven't used this for about 15 years!

It was the answer I was expecting and it is demanding to expect a 20 year old computer to work perfectly after having been stored for about 5 years.

2009-05-08 hd trouble: Hi Shaun, You've referred to Workbench 2.5, but I assume you mean 2.05 (which came bundled with the Amiga 600). The only way I know of getting files to an Amiga without using diskettes is via a null...

2009-04-12 Problem turning on my old Amiga 500: Hi Jonas, Since you're not getting any kind of feedback (i.e. solid-colored screens) from your Amiga 500, I would suggest checking to make sure that any socketed chips are properly seated and see if...
