| today i start my "amiga 2k with vampire 500v2" and get a black screen. So i take a look on the vampire and see that only the blue led lights on vampire. No act led. I use this until 1,5 years without problems. After this i changed the psu but nothing happens, no Vampire start screen on hdmi out and no screen on rgb out. Last week i flashed the vampire with firmware V500_G2-9_x11.jic but the amiga runs fine. So i have no idea what can i do. Can i go back to further firmware to test the behavior when i have only black screen and no act led is lightning. What can i do i need some help to identify and solve the problem. Thanks

| I'd check to see if its possible to reflash the core, at the very least that will tell you if the flash and the communication with the USB blaster is working. It might even tell you if the power is getting through correctly. I would probably try one of the newer cores as well just on the off chance. Has the 2000 been recapped?

| the amiga 2000 mainboard isnt recapped. I will try to reflash the vampire with an older core.

| I'm guessing you are using the cores from the download section, the latest cores are here http://wiki.apollo-accelerators.com/doku.php#latest_core

| The vampire are recognized by the usb blaster and altera flasing software. I haved flashed the card with some older cores. But they have no effect. I hace only a black screen and no vga out. The red act led blinks a little bit and then are still off. The next step is i changed the mainboard because i still have one in reserve with the same effekt. So I look in my old emails and see i ordered the card at 09.2017, also one year ago in the apollo accelerators shop. I will write an email to support and will ask about warranty for the card. Because i make no nonsense with the card and from one day to another day its broken. Its really sad to see this. Thanks
