There are 4 versions of PET 2001 system board: 6540 or 2316B ROM's 6550 or 2114 RAM There are also several different versions of ROM's. From the above, I see you have 6540 ROM's. What type of RAM do you have? The addressing logic is slightly different. What are the ROM part numbers? This is definitely a malfunction on the system board. The pattern at the bottom of the screen is typical of addressing problems. The system has cleared the first three pages of screen RAM, but has crashed before displaying the usual start up message. wlevak@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing list
