Non User-Serviceable Problems
Installation Problems
If the fault is not in the new hardware itself, there may be a
problem with its installation. Check to be sure that:
A board installed in the CPU slot is fully seated in the slot.
An accessory installed in the PCMCIA slot is fully seated in the
slot.
A PCMCIA memory card is write-enabled when it needs to be.
All jumpers are set properly according to the documentation.
All peripherals were properly reconnected to the Amiga after
installation.
Maintenance Problems
A floppy, removable media, or CD-ROM drive is dirty or out of
alignment. Use a commercial cleaning product according to the
drive manufacturer's directions, or have your dealer/service
center adjust the drive.
The mouse ball or mouse ball rollers are dirty. Open the mouse
ball cavity, remove the ball, and clean the ball and interior with
a cotton swab.
Connector pins are bent or dirty. Carefully clean and straighten
the pins.
Non User-Serviceable Problems
If you still have a problem after trying the remedies suggested here,
you may have a hardware problem that requires professional
attention. Have your Amiga examined by your Amiga dealer/service
center or a knowledgeable technician. If the problem appears to be
with a third-party device, contact its manufacturer.
Do not try to repair a damaged or malfunctioning unit yourself.
This could cause further damage, possible injury, and the voiding of
your warranties.
