Mouse and Joystick problem
After 10 years i wanted to set up my Amiga1200 again, the Amiga was stored in the cellar.
Unfortunalety i had and still have problems to get this Amiga fully working. I had problems with the internal floppy and with the keyboard too, meanwhile i have solved this problems, replaced internal drive with an external one, after cleaning the motherboard with 70% Alcohol the keyboard works too. But i am not able to fix this joy/mouse problem. Description: Fire and mouse buttons works, but there is no movement of mouse pointer and also joy-directions does not work. I have noticed, that after a while(loaded workbench) the mouse pointer moves wild for itself without touching the mouse, later it stops again to move. What could be wrong, any hint/tip? I have spent so much time to set up my amiga and now this strange issue. ![]() |

Some more description:
Solder joints of the components 2- 5 were very oxidized. If i touch (i know its not a good idea) the component 1, then this causes mouse movement. Last edited by mai; 09 September 2019 at 23:12. |

Redo the solder on board.
If no go you have a busted Paula, what it's dead easy to spot if you have crackly/silent/noisy audio out. |

Not again this popular myth... Paula has nothing to do with mouse/joystick directions.
Paula: right and middle button, paddle/pot counters. CIA: left mouse/fire button. Denise/Lisa: directions/mouse counters. And finally there is multiplexer chip between Denise/Lisa and joystick ports that is is most common reason for broken joystick/mouse port in A500s. |

Check U34 if both port directions are borken and everything else works.
Possible reasons: broken chip, missing voltages, broken connections between U34 and Lisa. (there is only simple serial+clock line connected to Lisa. A500 has 4 lines.) |

By the way, i know i can simply buy a new motherboard, but i would like to try to repair this board, because if i would buy a new board, then the Amiga would not be the same Amiga with what i had so much fun in the 90s, you probably know what i mean. |
