ParanoidLittleMan Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 How you know that it boots up OK ? What cable, connectors you use, on what TV input ? Just to mention that you need to tune TV on VHF low, aprox. channel 2 for Atari, if use RF cable (antenna cable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The analog channel can vary depending on country of sale of the machine. You could verify the machine works by outputting the RCA audio to some powered speakers - fairly sure the standard ST audio is also piped out. Once the desktop is active (takes almost a minute if no floppy inserted), you should get key clicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
