ajk:

Thanks for the sugestions. Unfortunately, this was the only Amiga I still had, and I don't know anyone else around here to try swapping parts. Heck, even back in the day I didn't know any other local Amiga users. Also unfortunately, being disabled, I can't just throw a bunch of money at this & start buying parts. I can afford to fix it, if it can be, but I'd have to know what's gonna do it the first time.

Merlin:

Nope. No damaged caps, leakage, or signs of dried residue. This board is beautiful, you'd swear it was made earlier this year. No smell I can detect. Even in the power supply, there were dark areas around components from the heat, but no signs of anything split, leaking, or swelling.

It's frustrating that there's no official diagnostic for the LED's blinking. More people seem to have that then getting stuck on a solid color screen.
