: My newly aquired Apple II + has the following symptoms at power up: breaks to monitor,
: usually around memory location DBxx. Will not boot dos, or come up in basic. I can list
: memory contents. Any suggestions?
: Thanks.
From what you've said, it's difficult to know whether you have a serious hardware problem
or just a screwed boot disk.
A corrupt boot/program disk will drop into the monitor and not display the basic prompt.
Can you get an AppleDos 3.3 system disk ? or else another floppy formatted with AppleDos 3.3
that you know is ok? Or have you done this already ?
Cheers,
