The A3000T board FITS in the tower case?!? You'll need an Amiga power supply. PC power supplies don't provide a signal needed by the Amiga. That's different on the 4000, but not on the 3000. Now I need to figure out whether the PC Power and Cooling supplies will work as a replacement in my A4000… — Dale L. Larson, Intangible Assets Manufacturing

Olaf I hope you are able to get a powersupply for this. I talked to someone who tried to do this, using a PC power supply on a 3000T motherboard. He learned that the 3000T PS did a lot more than just provide DC voltages, it also has a fancy overcurrent protection scheme that looks for feedback from the MB or something like that. He finally went to an Amiga repair shop that told him they have only been able to fix about 50% of these PS's and that he would have to get the right PS to make it work. I hope this is wrong but that is what I was told. Also that those PS's are high failure items and very hard to find new. If you find a source for them how about share it here with the rest of us?
