Hi,

After watching the screen of my Amiga 2000 flutter around for about
3min., I turned it off, hoping the problem would go away. I tried to
turn it on later, and although the moniter worked, the actual computer
wouldn't turn on. I was wondering if anyone might know what's wrong with
it.  Any imput would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Please provide more details about your system configuration and
behaviour: How does is "not turn on".

Power Led on/off/flashing?
Harddisk Led on/off/flashing?
Power Supply Fan rotating?
Harddisk spinning up?
Keyboard Caps Lock Led flashing?
How do you know the monitor works ok?

- Remove *all* external devices, expansion cards, drive connections,
except for monitor and DF0:.
 -Check for leaking battery, loose socketed chips (press firmly on
each).
- Turn power on.
What happens?

- Measure voltages from PSU.
Everything ok there?

Regards,

Peter Wagner
