Yes, I am referring to my 8032 PET/CBM. I bought a video adapter off eBay a
short time ago; I'm wondering if it's the same type...
Any ideas as why it's failing to start? Nothing shows onscreen, no PET "bleep"
startup sound, just quiet, as if the power switch was disconnected inside..I
think there was a very brief flicker onscreen though last time I tried it..
I dont have any technical info on the power supply, etc. Otherwise I would have
tried poking around with a meter by now...
