[comp.sys.amiga] A500 Bites Dust!!!

 We gottem big problems over here in cornville.  My good friend Ami wouldn't
talk to me last night.  I could see that she was awake (power light on) but
her face just wouldn't light up (black screen).  She also wouldn't listen to
me at all (Didn't access DF0:).  Since I am a computer pre-med student (Computer
Tech) I think I might have part of the problem diagnosed. (We had a good storm
last night BTW...Computer was hooked up through it all..dummy!)

I switched the 8520's and then the power light wouldn't come on.  Also one of
them was getting hot and quick.  So, what I was wanting to know is what support
circuitry should be checked to make sure I just don't replace the 8520 and pop
'er again.  Any help would be appreciated.

Till later...
