I just need to pick your brains if you don't mind (and maybe your spares 
pile)...

I have replaced the TV lead from inside the power unit, and I get a picture on
my TV.

However, if the TV is tuned in properly - I get a black and white picture,
otherwise the start up screen is very blue.  

Is there anything I can do - I had to remove the ROM and memory chips and reseat
them to get even an ounce of colour on screen, but it may just be the TV needs
tuning.

There were two SCART leads with the computer, but neither seem to give an 
output.

I seem to recall reading that the SCART is very different to normal.

Does anyone have spare SCART and cassette leads please?

Also - I have found a semi-circular rubber foot - I presume that the Sam should
have four of these in the holes on the side of the casing?  

Does anyone have some spares?

My Sam has 512K memory, with piggy-backed RAM chips and a wire which runs across
and is connected to one of the pins on the internal expansion port (to the right
of the disk drive).

Is this normal - as it seems an awkward way of connecting it!

Finally, I have an MGT mouse interface for the Sam, and a Comms interface - what
is the best way of testing these?
