Apple IIc 4100 - Horizontal Tetris boot screen
Posted by: stansteph54 on 2025-02-08 14:03:23
Hi there,

Bad news tonight when trying my IIc which worked great 6 months earlier !

I do have a kind of Tetris horizontal boot screen !



Thanks

the IIc is a 4100

I have tried today with another checked ROM 4X chip and the problem is the same.

5V voltage looks perfect on the Ram chips.

thanks for your input and help

Have you tried removing the daughter ram board ? can be anything, including the processor.

yes I did.

In the end, you were right, the 6503 processor was dead for totally unknown reason yet !

That's a little surprising. Dead 6502s aren't unheard of, but it's definitely rare. Glad it's up and running though!
