- I have had an A500 which has worked flawlessly for the past couple of
- years. I also have a Commodore 128 set up and I interchange the
- computers whith the 1080 monitor, modem, ect.
-
- Unfortunately, I plugged my C128 power supply into the amiga. THe cord
- ends look very similiar and after I realized it and pulled it out
- fast!
-
- After I plugged in the amiga supply and fired it up I noticed a burnt
- smell, but the computer seemed to be operating properly. However, when
- I went to use the "say it" utility I could hardly hear the voice, then
- the computer crashed and I got a guru #.
-
- This also happened when I went to play Sinbad and the Falcon of the
- Thrown. The program fuctioned properly, but the sound was barely
- audible. It crashed about 10 seconds into the introduction.
-
- If someone could help me identify what could possibly be wrong? I am
- not technically an expert with this machine, but I am capable of
- replacing and soldering chips if someone could help me determine which
- chip needs to be replaced I would be very appreciative!
-
- Thanks!
