Re: A5000 - diving in at the deep end!

Well, another little bonus, I can now connect to NFS shares hosted on the A5000 using Moonfish as well :) So I can connect to NFS shares in both directions now. This is two NFS shares hosted on the A5000 connected to by a Centos VM - NFS & Games: Screenshot 2023-12-21 at 09.30.18.png For some re...

Oooh, good stuff.
Booting issue moves with the keyboard, so that helps narrow the investigation down hugely - thanks all!
Well that's a good afternoon of diagnosing in my books then :)

Next step is to pull the KBD apart, see whats what.

I wonder if your keyboard just has 'something' on the membrane causing multiple key presses being simulated causing the boot issue.
Just the other day on eBay there were a few Keyboard Controllers for sale. Membranes also easy to get.
Much as I was thinking :)

Boots OK with the keyboard from the "working" A500 (well, had time at lunch to just disassemble the working A500 & move the keyboard across and try one boot with it)...

Later I'll try the suspect keyboard in the "working" system...
Oooh, good stuff.

Re: A500 oddities & upgrade suggestions

Since it boots without the keyboard, and with the keyboard touching ground, it may be worth buzzing out the keyboard cable to see if any of the wires are broken. Good idea - I'll have to find some schematics/cable wiring details but they'll come in handy when I finally look at the other faulty Amig...

Re: A500 oddities & upgrade suggestions

Since it boots without the keyboard, and with the keyboard touching ground, it may be worth buzzing out the keyboard cable to see if any of the wires are broken. Also, since you have another Amiga, have you tried to boot with the keyboard from the other machine connected? If it does, that might poin...

Re: PS4 of Doom...

Okay then. I just got another PS4 from eBay relatively cheap from eBay, just looks like a bad hard drive, which is a quick fix, and there is video out as well, so something to compare the WLOD machine to. Something weird with the WLOD machine is that it boots to safe mode, and I can reboot as thats ...

Re: PS3 part deux

Time to turn my attention back to the PS4, which has no video output. Or just get another PS4 and put the one you have in the spares box? They are dirt cheap. Gone are the times where PS4 owners thought they would part fund their PS5 purchase by selling their PS4. Add in the PS5 price reduction and...
