Hi, my name is Dan. I’ve owned a M100 since the mid 80’s
where I lugged it around to user group meetings and college. I even had a
really cool setup with a DVI and a composite green screen monitor to type up
reports on.
Unfortunately I sold the DVI to pay for a good chunk of parts to build an IBM
XT clone. Now I'd much rather have the DVI.
I saw on the Club 100 page the Rick Hanson had
passed. I’ll miss him, he was always
very kind. Over the years I purchased a number of EPROM’s from him and he
refurbished
a couple of M100’s for me.
Recently I saw the
NADSBox. I’ve ordered one. In preparation for its arrival I pulled my old M102
out of storage. When it went in to
storage, it was working. Storage is not climate
controlled (it’s my garage).
The problem I’m having is that the + and Enter key do not
work. According to the service manual,
Figure 4-7 the keyboard looks to be a matrix style. Asking those more
experienced, should I look
at a key switch problem, bad IC or the ribbon cable connecting the keyboard to
the PCB?
Thanks,
Dan
