And it's dead again :( I was typing the cbmlink bootstrap basic program. I saved it on tape and I was trying the first test runs as it just died on me. Now at reset it clears the video memory and sometimes it displays a few random characters but most of the time the screen remains just blank. I'm going to try to substitute the kernel ROM since on one of my programmers refuses to read entirely (on another one reads fine every time). With no kernel ROM, the screen remains full of characters as it should. Ok... old hardware isn't so easy to fix after all. Suggestions welcome of course!
