Helllloooo

Can you hear me back there in the 1980s?

 

Was this posted in 1989?...surely not!

 

All I need is someone who can solder and my Amiga 500 can be as good as new again!

 

Have a look on Ebay - you can pick up loads of Amiga stuff from there (I did ! )

Ignore the neanderthals on here - Amiga rules !

Hi there and welcome to CF, it sounds more like an overheating issue. Make sure there is plenty of air around the power pack

 

Oddly enough my C64 had a powerpack issue...used to buzz like hell! Oh those were the days...and it was the only 'blue screen' that I loved!
