Re: Help for an old Apple ][ clone

["Henry" <apl2research(.a.t.)comcast.net>]

Hello txt.

You could try reseating all the IC's on the Motherboard.  You may even want 
to remove them and clean the leads with a pencil eraser depending on how 
dirty they are.  I small wire brush in a Dremmel works well too.

Be sure to observe protection from static too!
