atari 5200 field service manual

Recommended Posts

Is the ATari 5200 Field Service Manual Online anywhere? If not, would anybody recommend this manual? How useful is it?

I don't believe it is online anywhere. As for usefulness, I guess it depends if you are going to be repairing 5200s or not. If you're not then it's not of much use. :)

Well, I have a few 5200 systems around my place that are just dead. I may go ahead an order the Field Service Manual from Best. Besides, it may be kind of interesting to look at!

If you do a search, you can find one for sale @ around $30. I bought one not too long ago. My copy was purchased because I have almost everything there is to have for the 5200 excluding prototypes and a few obscure accessories and wanted it for my collection + I can work on the 15 or so dead/decaying 5200s I have in storage.

(Apologies in advance for dredging up old thread.)

 

According to Classic Gaming Enthusiasts of Canada Links Page, the 5200 FSM apparently was online at http://huitzilo.tezcat.com/~snapsnar/repair/5200/index.html.

 

Did anyone happen to save a copy of it while it was available? The Internet Archive: Wayback Machine appears not to have it.

 

Alternatively, has it been placed online elsewhere in the 2+ years since this thread was started?

Nope, if you want it, you'll have to buy it.
