Chaps.
I've been lucky enough to obtain a Super Gold Card ( For which I am a
happy chap)
The downside is that it's experiencing problems whilst booting my QL.
If i describe the
screen that comes up whilst booting maybe itll sound familiar. Firstly,
there isn't much of
a delay before the following screen appears.
Basically, the screen is the same every time, mainly a semi repeating
pattern with plenty
of Black and white and a few familiar greens and Red. More
interestingly, Nearer the top
of the screen are area's of letters, i.e. not just a pattern but some
real letters which I
am taking as being a good sign that the SGC is not actually dead. ok,
the QL has crashed
but.... Also, i removed the 68008 from my QL motherboard and tried
again with the exact
same result.
At no time has my QL actually booted correctly.
I am due to send this off to Tony Firshman, hopefully re-setting the
chips will do the trick,
I just thought Id post this in case others had experienced something
similar.
Thanks, Neil ( new member and a little wet behind the ears )
