I fished this 1982 ][e board out of my storage. This board has the soldered in ram.
With a good power supply when started it has not video - no beep - and the resistor at R16 but the power plug
is hot as can be. Enough so I need to power down the board.
I noticed on Reactive MIcro's site this 75 OHM 2 Watt resistor is not needed with their power supply.
It has good resistance but replaced it with a known good one anyway - same result.
All voltages check good. I wonder if anyone has had this resistor want to burn their fingers
checking for hot chips.?
Thank you.
