Message-ID: <37106@nigel.ee.udel.edu> Date: 23 Nov 90 19:34:53 GMT Sender: usenet@ee.udel.edu Reply-To: bunnell@udel.edu () Organization: University of Delaware Lines: 14 Nntp-Posting-Host: dewey.udel.edu I'm trying to figure a problem with an A-500: The first screen color during the startup self tests is a sort of purple/magenta kind of color. This is not one of the standard fault indicators that I've seen posted here (e.g., Red = bad ROM; blue = bad custom chip). Any ideas about what would give this color? Could it be the sum of two colors showing more than one fault? Thanks for any suggestion, Tim -- Tim Bunnell
