it’s literally the same game

Working on an Amiga 1000, it had a Rejuvenator Board with a old leaking Varta. It had leaked some down on the A1000 motherboard but surprisingly didn't do any damage.

The Reguvenator board has some damage and that damage was very close to the 1MB Fat Agnus. Luckily Agnus' IC socket was spared.

So far I've tried to neutralize the battery leakage with vinegar. Some of the battery damage is under the pcb protective coating. I'm going to have to remove some of that and neutralize it again.

The Real Time Clock IC had been removed long ago .. so there must have been an issue with the RTC. Possibly the battery had stopped working and nobody noticed?

Any tips?

I am a new Amiga owner (never had one before) and picked up an A500+ today and found that it boots to a yellow screen, and restarts itself every now and then. Some quick Googling leads me to believe it could be the PSU, the trapdoor RAM or battery leak damage.

Unplugging the RAM didn't change anything, so I opened it up and discovered the area around the battery doesn't look great. Could this be the issue? Is this salvageable? Thanks for looking

Enjoy this nice old documentary. Subtitles work flawlessly.

Doing some recapping. But have to ask what are the squares? As I wonder if they are the cause they look iffy.

Any ideas what they are if they can be the cause of loss of video input?

If they could be where can I buy replacements?

The way my desk is laid out, I do not have enough room to connect my new Amiga 1010 external floppy drive to my A500. I need to get a cable extension/extender, by about 2 to 3 feet.

Would something like THIS work?

Or are there better options that you can point me to? This cable looks a bit pricey, specially because it is coming overseas. Are there US local options for cheaper?

Hi,

in my mind I have a glimpse of this game, some kind of 2D platform like Pang, but you have to catch butterflies. Do you remember something like this?

Thank you in advance!
