andrew@meler.us Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I just purchased XEGS. Initially when powered on with keyboard connected, it will show blue basic screen with the cursor in the corner. Pressing Reset then boots to basic. Pressing Reset while holding option, boots to self test. Pressing Reset while holding select boots Missile Command game. Why won't it boot when 1st powered on? Any ideas what could be causing this?

_The Doctor__ Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) Reset circuit issues, there are a couple of threads about fixing up keyboard and reset issues... give elastasearch a whirl lmfs that for you... the search box is on nearly every page, but not all... it yields threads like this one...

andrew@meler.us Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 Thanks. My problem is similar (I'm having issues even with the keyboard connected). I'll get some capacitors and try this fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew@meler.us Posted November 15, 2021 Author Share Posted November 15, 2021 I installed new capacitors on L41 and L37 and this didn't work for me, still same behavior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
