Hi,I just subscribed to this list, and I'm really hoping someone can help with
a problem I'm having with my Tandy 200 computer. I'm still a bit new to vintage
computers, and I'm getting in way over my head! I need a ribbon cable for the
display. The original one has given me a problems before, and now the
conductors inside finally broke. I have tried EVERYTHING I can think of to
improvise a way to connect the display, but I'm not having any luck! Does
anyone have a ribbon cable for the display, or would anyone be able to make
one? (I'd pay for it). I know that replacing the connectors so it could use a
more standard type of cable would be the best way, but my desoldering/soldering
skills are horrible. I would end up totally breaking the motherboard if I tried
to do that. I really love this little computer and want to get it working again.
If anyone can help, please let me know!
