Default A2000 PAL problem

I have what seems a earlier edition 2000 here, with a 4.1 rev MB. It had Kickstart 1.2 in it when I got it, but put in 1.3. Has 1MB Chip, not sure which Agnus is in it, I think Fat? Problem is I cannot get it to display a PAL screen in WB. When I invloke a PAL command screen goes black, if I type in NTSC it goes back to normal screen. But some games that load into PAL work fine? Its weird. Also I thought all 1MB Chip machines had the PAL capability?

hum... I might be wrong, but I believe 1.2 machines never ever did have 1mb of chip.

My original A2000 was a 1.3 box with 512chip + 512 semi-fast, so I would think yours is really a 512k chip box

Well it does have 1MB Chip. Sysinfo says ECS Agnus. Hmm not sure, but it seems PAL does not work at all, I was mistaken earlier on the games.

I recently got an A2000T with 6.2 mobo and 3.1 KS....
I don't like it, the machine is crap damn it! the mobo is bought from m.rubisch , and is excellent as hardware, but I found the a2000 to be a total disapointment...
I am spoiled from my 4000's...

keropi, sell your home and buy an '060 for A2000, it will be much more like A4000.. ;-)

I won't bother anymore with it I think... it has a picassoII, 2MB chip expansion, and a GVP 030/40 accel with 16MB fast...
