    Wow!! The only thing missing was the Chilean wine!! The best!!! Next time we'll go with a "Carmenere" to make sure the Amiga is in perfect condition. A hug!!!

    As the seller of the recap kit used in the vid (we include the label in each recap kit), i can with 100% tell you that they are not chinese caps, the are Panasonic or equivalent (after the pandemic it have been harder to get Panasonic caps), we purchase bulk from Elfa, RS (reputable suppliers).

      @@drphilxr I use a PC that was put together at work a couple of years ago. I went to debug a 500 clone build with Diagrom and discovered PCs don't have serial any more. So I thought it is a tower so I will buy a serial card. Got it, opened the PC up and guess what. A tower build with only one expansion slot but already in use. WTF.
      Now I use USB to serial....

    I am having this issue with my 1200, except that it is happening repeatedly. I am currently on my third set of kickstarts.
    The system runs fine for a few days, then disk I/O slows to a crawl (like bytes/sec) and then black screen with a flashing power LED.
    I have used a few different new power supplies.

      I’m pretty sure it’s the windows only programmed because it has to have direct access to the COM ports or ethernet it is plausible that you could try to set it up under wine but I have never done that so I cannot confirm that
