    A reading of -15v does seem very high for a -12v rail. The other readings all seem within acceptable ranges.

    Not sure if it would damage an Amiga, but if the -12v rail is used specifically for the audio then that could explain your damaged A600 audio. But I'm not really an expert in the internal electronics of the Amiga. You need to get Zetro to answer this one to give you a proper answer.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    sorry i have not relpied to this sooner...

    okie dokie... the reason you have a -15v reading is the fact there is no load on the +12v

    -15 is perfectly fine

    the reason the audio is dead could be one of two things

    1. (and most likely) the motherboard capacitors are shafted... these need replacing
    2. Paula is on the way out, (you would also notice intermittent mouse action as well)

    hope that helps
    If i had a hammer, I would hammer in the morning, i would hammer in the evening, i would hammer all day
