    Well, after reflowing the chips, I'm getting the green screen. I guess I'd start with replacing the chip ram, and then Alice, if it doesn't help.

    Chip ram is a good place to start with replacements, further research shows its a strong chance ram could be the culprit. Wishing you the best of luck!

    if its heat related it could be a poor joint on "something" "somewhere" on the board, id start re-flowing Alice first as she gets the hottest on a general run and test and just continue chip by chip up the board.

    Hello, New forum user, not new to Amiga platform or a new customer to Individual Computers

    Never had any issues before with any previous hardware that i couldn't resolve however today I have arrived home to greet my new ACA1233n 26 with some joy, first glances where very nice indeed however when i have turned the card over there is quite a heavy flux residue left on the lower side of the board. Quite a thick flux too,

    Just a little disappointing because these products are considered to be high quality, as i said before i have had a lot of hardware on and off over the years and have always held IC in high regard when buying hardware.

    So question is if i where to clean this flux off using IPA would i be voiding my warranty? just a little concerned that some may reach a warranty sticker on the other side of the board.
    And how "Active" is that flux used when building the boards, if its a low to no activity flux i could just leave it there it just does not look as pretty is all.


    not yet installed it as i have yet to remove the capacitors on my 1200, probably wont get round to doing that until Sunday. But i eagerly await a response :)
