Hello and hi, i just registered here and so here is my little introduction. Im student with some electronics and old computer experience from Holland. I recently got hold on an old ST Book wich functioned sometimes (20% of the time it booted, other times it failed). Nowadays it stopped functioning, it constantly gives 4 bombs. I tried the reset methed, and even the 3Volt battery is removed (it was dead). Now i dont know what else happend to the machine but from what i heard the data on the HDD might be corrupted. Also 8 DIP switches seem to be tampered with (damage on plastic). You guys got any tips? I just love this machine simply because of the awesome hardware!
