Tips for testing a tatung

Post by vanpeebles »

I'm having a few issues with my tc-01 and being a new user, I'm not familiar with what is caused by say a bad floppy drive or the board itself. Are there any type ins for MOS (gulp) to check the ram or video ram etc? At the moment, I can't boot any disks, I have a Konami disk that will boot to the menu, but then no games load, it goes to a blue screen with purple flickering dots (and the speaker makes a clicking sound) once you choose a game. Is this just a bad drive or something more sinister?

Indeed seems a bug creeping inside your Einstein; but, have you checked any other programs?. If there's something wrong with the hardware, you must be consistently finding this behaviour everywhere.
