You'll have to contact Stachu for a price as it depends on if he had the 060 chips, etc. You can PM him via EAB/Amibay.
A clean and fully working Apollo 1240@40mhz should fetch £150-£175 and 1260 £300+ Prices fluctuate and depend on the condition and if the original box, etc are present. A faulty one would be a bit of a gamble as it could turn out to be an expensive door stop or paperweight. |

look for the regulator,no regulator means no 040. changing the jumpers wont hurt it.it just wont work if its set wrong. the original 060 cards never went to 80mhz 66 was the max when they were made. also some motherboards needed timing fixes to work as well.

Yeah.
It has been established already this is a 1240 thanks to everybody's input, and also that the unit might be unstable because of leaking! |

It might also be unstable for not installing the 040 Libs from the Apollo install disk. The Apollo cards are very finikerty about which drivers they work with. You mentioning you haven't installed the software yet; Quote:

Indeed it should work fine with the commodore 040 library, I never had any need to install the Apollo libs when I was successfully using the apollo 1240. Mine did eventually dies from the effect of historical battery leakage however.

no mate. the 040 card does use the commodore 040 lib. the 060 card uses the libs supplied on the apollo install disk. i dont think it has anything to do with the mach chip,its a different cpu on board. |

This is an 040 it hasn't been converted to 060.
I never had any issues using the commodore library with my 1240 which was equipped with mach131. The OP says the card is not being recognised at power on (flashing the power led) and crashing before any disk activity so it must be a hardware issue not a library issue. |
