Re: I killed it.. :-(

You could try another processor, even a 65C02 just to see if it's that. By
the description of the garbage on the screen, I would be more inclined to
suspect the RAM. If it's socketed like the II+ you could try swapping a bank
of 8 around and see if the screen garbage clears up or changes.
