Arrow WTB: A3640 and RTG zorro card

For backup purposes, I am after an A3640 cpu card (or any other cheap accelerator 040+) and a zorro based RTG card, one that has scandoubler input. I don't really care about perfomance being the best, even a picassoII is great.
If you have anything for sale please PM me.

thanx!

Try to hold out for a v3.1 or v3.2 A3640 if you can. Or be prepared to mod your own.

AFAIK v3.0 has some issues with A3000. Not sure if it has any problems using on an A4000 though.
also, make sure it didn't have any caps leaked.

v3.0 causes some Zorro III cards that do burst to fail to work. v3.1 fixes it, v3.2 fixes a few other things (mainly some telephone answer card).

To convert a v3.0 into a v3.2 is a cut of one trace, solder in a jumper wire to wire two pins of a chip together and the desoldering, reprogramming of two PAL chips.

no need for any of these items, I got this A4000D from eBay...
hey alexh , the 3640 on it seems upgraded, right?

finally, now I can take my time to find a suitable csppc... it sucks to actually have the money to get a couple, and not being able to...

It is a 3.01 which is a 3.0 which has the cut and jumper fix. But no upgraded pals

As I have said before you have TOO MUCH MONEY.

You got 2x A4000D's now?

Me too, I got my A4000D-CR the other month for £150

I thought the v3.0 have the polorized capacitor problem?

where in commodores *infinate* manufacturing wisdom they mounted the *polorized capacitors round the wrong way drastically reducing thier life span!!

I have an A3040 r3.1 i sold it for £55 inc postage...

(no you cannot have my Cyberstorm MkII 060 128MB ) its mine all mine...

Hi Zetro,

I don't suppose you've got a link to a site with info on how to MOD the v3.0 A3640 please?

Thank you.

Can nobody google these days? This is not the best website I've seen for the patch but here

http://wonkity.com/~wblock/a4000hard/a3640ref.html

This appears to say there is only one PAL chip to reprogram U209 but I seem to remember two. I am probably wrong.
