Running A1200 without RF shield

[Fern]

Hey Harrison, cheers for the info No doubt that disk utility will prove useful too, I plan to get hold of some DX7 editor software for use with my vintage synths, the ST was THE machine for that back in the day!

Have just powered her up for the first time in many years, and aside from a busted power board (got her running off a regulated bench supply, which just makes the setup look even more badass!) everything seems to work fine. I have nothing more exciting to play with than a word processor and spreadsheet at the moment but it's enough to test basic functionality.

If you are looking for software to try pop over to planetemu.net as they have an old TOSEC archive which includes the ST one with loads of games and software.

Until my recent tower conversion, I always ran my A1200 without the sheilding, mainly because it was a pain to put back in place.
One of my A500s has no sheilding in place either.
