I'm having some problems on startup of my IBM 5150.
Here's what happens:
- Cursor starts blinking
- Red light of floppy drive comes on
- 601
- Red light off
- 1 short beep
- Red light comes on again
- Computer starts in Basic
- Red light off
There is no floppy in the drive because I don't...
Trying to fire up my IBM PC 5150 but it has a 'Parity Check 1' message on boot (just after displaying '3008 201')
How do I fix this?
Board is 64 - 256 KB
2 x 360KB FDD
Monitor 5151 (green monochrome)
DIP switches closest to power unit (switch block 2 ?)
1 on
2 off
3 off
4 on
5 on
6 off
