Hi All,
I have a strange problem with my 8032 and hope someone can help. When I boot it up, the cursor is an inverted @ symbol, I can type but when I type something invalid and press Return it takes much longer than it should to process and show the "?syntax error" message and if I do this 4 or 5 times all the blank spaces on the screen turn to @ symbols, I can continue to type but there is something very wrong.
I've done quite a few repairs to the PET. I purchased it in a none working state and with the help of some of you on another thread I managed to get it to boot to BASIC showing 32K of good RAM.
The following have been checked and verified as working okay in my 4032:
RAM 4116 & 2114
ROM
6502
6522
6520
CRT Chip
I've uploaded a video here to show the problem.
I'd be grateful for any help with this.
Thanks,
Dan
