A friend of mine purchased an AppleIIe a while back in fairly good
condition (used) at a flea market.  He decided to put a 3.5" UniDisk in
it recently and is having problems.  The UniDisk didnt work in his
machine, so he removed it and was going to do without it.  But the
problem began there.  After he removed the card,  his machine will no
longer boot from disk (with or without UniDisk card).  It boots as if no
disk drive card is present with "APPLE ][" at the top of the screen.  If
you type in a program, it will run but when you press cntl-reset the
screen turns white and the speaker put out noise (pressing cntl-reset a
few more times will make it stop).  One person said his ROMs where gone
(which will cost him about $60 each) another person said to buy a new
motherboard from a company other than Apple to save money.  Any
suggestions?

Thanks for the help in advance,
