AIM-65 Questions

No problem; if someone else hasn't already fixed you (Rich & Ethan) up, I can dig out the ROM images or (if I can't find the disks) recreate them. Write me off-list and, if still required, what format (Intel/Mot/bin?). Just to make sure yours are correctly installed, the last 2 digits of the ROM specify the location, so the BASIC ROMs are R3225 & R3226 and should be inserted in sockets Z25 & Z26 respectively (Cxxx & Bxxx address blocks). And the monitor is in Z22&Z23 (R3222 & R3223), but sounds like it's OK. As Tony mentions elsewhere the 2332's could be mask-programmed various ways, and later model AIM65s had jumpers to select 2732/2532, but the AIM65 ROMs are 2532 pinout; 2732's would need a couple of pins exchanged unless you have one of the later AIMs (I assume yours is the 1K/4K version).. At least two different types of keyboards were used, but nothing special about either. I have a few brand new ones left if you need one (Don't worry, Jeff, one still has your name on it :). Might also still have some manual sets as soon as I figure out who's getting what, and several spare AIMs for parts. mike ---------------------Original Message---------------------- From: "Rich Beaudry" &lt;r_beaudry(a)hotmail.com&gt; Subject: AIM-65 Questions Hello all, I recently completed a trade for an AIM-65 that is about 80-90% working, but needs a little TLC. Hopefully someone here can help.... It appears to have the BASIC ROMs installed, and in the right sockets, but pressing "5" on the keyboard only results in the "<5>" display, and then the AIM hangs up. Only a press of the Reset button will free it up. I suspect the ROMs may be flaky, since one had quite a bit of (for lack of a better word) gunk on the tops of the pins. I cleanied it all off, but there may be some internal damage. These ROMs are part number 2332. I suspect these are 2732-compatible, at least in read mode, and not program mode... Does anyone have a ROM dump in Hex format? If so, could you email it to me so I can burn new ones? Actually, while I'm at it, if anyone has ANY of the AIM-65 ROMs dumped in Hex format, I'd appreciate copies. Then I could burn a whole new set... Also, the keyboard needs cleaning pretty badly. Unfortunately, I do not remember the manufacturer name or model #, but it is the standard AIM-65 keyboard. Has anyone ever fully taken one apart to clean it? If so, any gotchas? Thanks! Rich B.
