Georg build the fastest 030-Amiga i have ever seen ...

This picture is from the 60Mhz testrun (sysinfo untruly reports 66MHz)

@Paul
If the new owner has problems or questitions about the rejuvenator board, give him a hint.
he can download the manuals on amiga.resource.cx

@Hans
i used it for the phoenix turbo fe cpu-upgrade.
in the future i try to connect both system with a bridgeboard

here are some steps from the beginning until now.
pictures are allways better than words.

- Holzbrett-Movie

- B2000-VideoPort for A1000

- VideoPort-Movie (Testrun)

- Tick-Signal for ATX-PSU

- ROM-Adapter Part1 (BootROM-Version) - pictures

- ROM-Adapter Part1 (BootROM-Version) - assembly instructions

- ROM-Adapter Part2 (CPU-Socket-Version) - pictures

- ROM-Adapter Part2 (CPU-Socket-Version) - assembly instructions

- ROM-Adapter Part3 (selectable between Disk-/ROM-Operation)

.. hmm ..

i forgot my other amigas.

1xA1000 with Rejuvenator and Derringer030
1xA1000 PAL (unmodified)

Hi,

i bought my first Amiga in 1987.
The Amiga1000 ... used ... 1400,- DeutschMark
So please forgive me my bad english, my native language is german.

I have no deep knowledge about coding, only some basics in assembler.
But thats long ago and its hard to refresh this knowledge.
(I have had a cerebral tumor in 2005 .. so its a little bit more harder than normal)

Some of my tools are available on the aminet.
HighGfx
Twinkick
Amithlon-Guide

On the other hand i play around with some electronics.
I build some nice upgrades for the Amiga1000.

take a look at my "playground" ...

This is my "Holzbrett" (pronounced "hold-s-bread") and means "wood board".



Here you can see (left hand) an A1000 (PiggyPack PAL-Agnus Rev.A) and (right hand) a PeeCee (sorry, its a Athlon 1GHz .. but i got it for free).

Starting on the left side, you will find the following parts:

- 1,76MB HD-Diskdrive
normal PeeCee Teac FD-235HF with prototype HD-FloppyFix (made by some other guys on a1k.org)
this is the first prototype that successfully supports the A1000
it can read/write/format in 1,76MB/1,44MB/880KB/720KB (FFS/OFS/CrossDOS-FAT)
Copyprotected games, various bootloaders and copytools are workin 100%.
There is also a testreport on AmigaFuture

- MultiVision2000-Flickerfixer
The flickerfixer is mounted on my selfmade B2000-compatible videoport, nearly all signals are coming from denise (3 signals are taken from the rgb-port)

- Kickstart/BootROM-switch
Selfmade Kickstart-Socket (512KB ROM) and BootROM made switchable for ROM-Mode and 100% retrofeeling
The selfmade-guide is on www.a1k.org, if someone wants to translate it to english .. contact me!

- Interfaceorgy
mouseport -> ps/2-interface -> kvm-switch -> trackball
a1k-keyboard-port -> a2k-interface -> ps/2-interface -> kvm-switch -> keyboard
Denise -> MultiVision2000 -> kvm-switch -> monitor
peecee -> kvm-switch -> keyboard/trackball/monitor

the amiga is conected as "master" ... double hit on ctrl to change the system (amiga-peecee/peecee-amiga)

the win/menu-key is supported as "cycle trough screens" on the amiga side, but works only on kick2.x and up (simulates AMIGA-M) .. under Kick1.x you can only flip to the first screen, not back.

- peecee
AMD Athlon 1Ghz 128MB memory, GeForce2Pro, 10GB HDD, CD-ROM, Realtek 8139, onboardsound, Linux, WinXP & Amithlon

- onboard sound
speakerset modified to work with 12V from ATX-psu
speakerset is connected with the a1000, peecee and cd-rom (selfmade audiomixer)

- ATX-PSU
300 Watt ATX-PSU modified to power the peecee and the Amiga1000.
It is modified to generate the needed TICK-signal.

- wooden controlbox
main powerbutton / peecee-reset-button
amiga-power-led / peecee-hdd-led / peecee-power-led
internal peecee "biep" speaker
amiga-switches (left sided)
BootROM / KickROM - switch
extra amiga-power-switch (for amiga-shutdown/hw-testing/ without rebooting the complete system)
