That board is a thing of beauty. Right now the shipping and customs would probably double the price if I were to get a remake A2000. We will see what the future brings. Take care, and keep up the good work.
Well done! Wish my ATX 4000 would have worked on the first try. Tens of hours of soldering is rewarded with tens of hours of diagnostics. Hopefully I will get my board working properly.
they can be rather enjoyable to do, I've done a red 2000 and a black 500+ i have a board here to do another 2000 but black this time, its an awesome feeling when they fire up the 1st time
I actually smiled when she booted up for the first time. Yes, it is a great feeling! I no longer have any Amiga hardware - how difficult is it to obtain the custom chips for the 4000? Would another model be easier to do a re-Amiga on?
Hello Chris, love your videos and also your kind of humor. I learned a lot from you and also it is very entertaining, every week like a ritual, waiting for videos from you. Today I had a messy Super Nintendo, caps spilled everywhere, she is wet 😂. And your caps cutter technique works perfectly, I love it. Beste regards from the German retro dude Marinus
Interesting Dr Chris. Have 2 x ACILL boards running at the moment 👍🏻 Would be nice though to have the Silkscreen with the pointers for pin 1 etc.. Maybe a newer revision is needed? But hey, it works 👍🏻 Cheers 🍻
"Why not jumper to PAL", because the PALjumper expects a PAL crystal, making all the chipset timings (including the clock) slightly off. If you change the jumper you need to change the crystal too.
my other 4000's are pal Crystals, however you can boot it on PAL jumper with a ntsc crystal. it will work but for stability yes change the crystal also
haha no The Black beast was a Video toaster rack mount unit, that was cut, black poweder coated and customized to have fans and drives and keep everything cool. it ran non stop for years which is what i think burned it out.
Contact cleaner eh.. ah just goto the auto parts store get some brake cleaner, that should do the trick. XD I'll presume he plans to retro-brite that A4K faceplate.
thank you for continuing to keep "the Commodore Amiga" in your memory and working on interesting things
Your centigrade reference at 21:42 made my day. Cheers
What a fantastic outcome for a weekend.
Soooooo tempting. BLAST!!!! My A4000 is mostly okay sans a dead video slot. Still that new board looks soooo good!!

Far from it but thanks!

haha no The Black beast was a Video toaster rack mount unit, that was cut, black poweder coated and customized to have fans and drives and keep everything cool. it ran non stop for years which is what i think burned it out.

I paid over 400
Contact cleaner eh.. ah just goto the auto parts store get some brake cleaner, that should do the trick. XD I'll presume he plans to retro-brite that A4K faceplate.
