[comp.sys.amiga] A1000 internal hacks

jwcote@blake.acs.washington.edu (Jim Cote) (06/09/89)

Can someone please email to me instructions/details/comments/etc.
concerning the various internal hacks which have been tried on the
A1000 to reduce noise on the expansion bus. I have heard of grounding
the pal chips, grounding the 68000, replacing the 68000, etc. I would
like some details on how to do these things. I have built the squeeze
ram memory addition so I do have some ability with a soldering iron.
I would like to try some of these methods because I have a microbotics
scsi module and a seagate st277n which I cannot get to do a low-level
format. Frequently I end up with a dma memory access error when trying
to low-level formatting and I suspect the expansion bus is too noisy.
Thanks in advance.   --- Jim Cote
