Well, it is something with the supplies. I tried the floppy power
supply in place of the system one, and got a Cass? prompt !
Then I switched back, and got a Cass? prompt ! GRRRR ! I'm still
digging.... maybe something failed and if I mount it back up it will
stop working again (once the ground pads are grounded on the back of the
supply ?).
Bad connections somewhere? The stiff ribbon cables between the CPU and
FDC and RS232 boards are notorious for this in my experience. Or at the
Molex connectors on the PSU.
A Model 3 CPU board needs all 3 outputs (+5V, +12V, -12V) from the PSU for
the DRAMs (4116).
