Okay, due to popular demand I have decided to do a full post on fixes for 
A1200 problems with some expansion slot hardware.  This takes moderate 
technical knowledge.  I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY HARM THAT MAY COME TO 
YOUR COMPUTER FROM PERFORMING THIS MODIFICATION.  This modification comes 
direct from Commodore Engineering on Jan 21, 1994.

Text follows:

BOARD REV. 1D.4

.-Budgie Rev -01

..Remove E123C and E125C from the A1200 motherboard

.-Budgie Rev -02

..Remove E123C and E125C from the A1200 motherboard
..Remove XR358 470 ohm pull-up resistor
..Add 470 ohm pull-up resistor at pin 43 of U2 (ie Alice)

BOARD REV. 2B

.-Budgie Rev -01 and -02

..Remove E123C and E125C from the A1200 motherboard
..Add 470 ohm pull-up resistor at pin 43 of U2 (ie Alice)
..Change R118 from 470 ohm to 220 ohm


------------------------------------------------------------

Well, there you have it, typed in for your convenience.

BTW, to find your Budgie Rev, look at the end of the C= part number.  It 
should be something like 365xxx -01 or -02.  Thats the revision.

Happy fixing!
