I have one of the Amiga 1060 sidecars for my Amiga 1000 and I am needing 2 things. (1) I need the schematics and service information for it if possible, and (2) I need to know if there is some way to get the amiga's memory card tht fits in the sidecar and fits on the amiga bus connector in the sidecar to give the amiga more memory.
Thank you for helping me...

Then you must add a connector to the non-component side so it can be put in the SideCar. CBM does not sell the board or connector so unless you know someone in europe/Canada or a developer who has a card your sunk..... This memory is then RANGER memory ($C00000) and will conflict with any internal memory expansion (like the Insider) unless that memory is switched to a different location (possible via dip switches). Unless you already have an Insider and 1.5megs is not enough, I would suggest you expand by adding an Insider first. Several things come into play getting one of those A2000 boards to work and you can spend alot of time and never get it to work also. (Trust me ive hacked those boards onto 1000's and SideCards before anyone knew they were missing from their German 2000's ;-) One other thing you could use a "RETURN" at the end of a line. It would make editing for a relpy alot easier!
