I've been working on a machine since early October that has seen a very rough life. My inventory found it to be an IV/70 that was upgraded with an IV/90 expansion chassis, an NP80 peripheral controller and a Wangco tape system that I only received the the formatter for. I've been trying to document most of the work so far on the vcfed forum and have a massive payload of board and cable photos & board slot arrangements. There was also boards for additional communication, disk and printing options I did not receive and by backwards chance whie I do not have a terminal display I DO have a keyboard, so that suddenly makes a keyboard-less terminal considerably more desireable to me. I've sent a copy of the images off to Al and to Gil Carrick over at the MITA but if anyone here wants a copy I can send them a compressed file. It's 720mb in total. He has also supplied me with some extra information and offered to loan a few items to assist in testing but he has software and card stacks I currently cannot image and are currently not imaged anywhere else that I have found. At this point I've nailed down power supply and capacitor issues and am still working with cabling and very, very little documentation, so I'm starting to run into problems finding solutions for a number of problems regarding damaged components and the IV/90 interconnect. I don't have the original IV/70 boardset for debugging. Sellam, it was alluded that one point you also had a system. Is that still the case? Does anyone have any additional information that can be grouped together while I'm working to get this machine running again? -John
