#Keyboard probs
Help! My Amiga 2000 is having keyboard problems.
Symptoms: The keyboard doesn't seem to be communicating well with the
machine. The CAPS LOCK light keeps flickering. When I press keys, I get erratic
results — often nothing at all, sometimes doubled letters, or flashes, or
backspacing, or the whole thing goes wild and starts endlessly repeating the
same character.
I tried another keyboard, which I know is in good condition…same story.
My local Commodore dealer, who is a clueless wonder, wants to keep the
machine for a few weeks to diagnose the problem.
Oh, I guess it would help if I told you about the configuration. What do I
have on the machine? What DON'T I have on the machine? A2630 accelerator. 6 MB
of 16-bit RAM. A 2091 controller with a Maxtor 210 MB disk drive. Video
Toaster. A2088 Bridgeboard. KitchenSYNC in an AT slot. System 1.2 ROMs.
Anybody have a clue what might be wrong — something I could tell this
dealer to get her on track, or something I could do myself? (I've installed
everything in this machine myself, I'm not afraid of its guts.)
Thanks, Don
