A1200 rev 1d3 does it need any fixes?

gulliver · 12 March 2010, 08:51

I have an A1200 with motherboard revision 1d3. I was wondering if it has any faults and what are its bugfixes.
I found a lot of information regarding A1200 motherboard revisions, but nothing on this particular one.
The idea, of course is to fix it if needed, before I use it on a tower project I have in mind.

Help is apreciated

No, leave it as it is.

Thanks for your reply!

Fix is only needed if you have a 040 or better accelerator. If nothing of this kind, leave the board alone.

Pretty much the same if you have an Indivision: there is a ferrite bead on the underside of the board that must be shorten (E127R, IIRC).

I know I asked before, but I want to be sure... Does this apply to 1D.4 too? Same SMD component?

@rkauer

I will be using a 040 with this motherboard. So what do I need to fix?

Test the Amiga with the accelerator first. IF it refuses to boot, sack both E123C & E125C (or E123R & E125R, never any other combination!).

Location?

Thanks, I will do as you instructed

As DJBase said: if the mobo works with the accelerator, don't fix it. It will no need fixing.

The accelerator booted, so no mod required!
