How do you think you can install new boards? :----) But seriously I don't see any reason for not opening a A2K. If you open it you can see what is the motherboard revision, install new boards, is it dirty, are all the stuff inside and are there any loosen bolts running on your motherboard killing all the chips etc. There are number of programs for determining the AGNUS revision or you can write your own which looks the id field from the AGNUS. E.g. all pal/ntsc change programs tell you whether there is the new or old AGNUS installed. Kramden utilities SI (system info) tells it too. I assume 2.0 has a field where you can obtain all the custom chip revisions. MIT -- Bubble Bobble
