once i put a kick 1.3 instead of 1.2 in my a500 stopped to show video andthe disk drive silenced (should i say flatlined)
but when i put the original back it came to life (god i was relieved)
actually what i put instead was a switcher with kick 2 and 1.3
those were my reckless hardware butchering days so i did many not so wise things. thanks to ebay i still have an amiga (lost two due to my own stupidity)
it´s possiple that the chips were defective but i suspect it to be just incompatibility ayone know if this is the case know how to find info on what should go where ?
