I just picked up an original Apple II and an Apple II+ this weekend,
plus drives, and internal cards for $2 at a garage sale. Not bad I
thought. Both are in rough shape, but they will hopefully come thru
in the end.
Anyway, I am troubleshooting the II right now. The PS isn't working,
so I took one out of my IIe that I have lying around, and got it to
the point of it to boot up with garbage characters. The disk drive's
won't come on. I put in an Apple ROM CARD (6K I believe), flip the
switch to A, and it beeps like it should, put it to position B, but
either way, still garbage characters across the screen. I have pulled
out all the addon cards, put them back one at a time, and tested. The
screen characters do change everytime I turn it on and off.
Now what is my next step? Reseat all ROM chips?
Thanks, Corey
