Okay, How do I re-install the double LED power indicator? It doesn't
have a screw holding it, it doesn't seem to push into anything, and I
have a clear piece of plastic that I don't have a clue about.
How does this thing stay in place? When I took it apart I think it
pulled out of the top part of the case.

Doesn't that stand up on its leads??? I know the Amiga A500 does it
that way. YOu might have to bend it slightly to match up wit the hole
in the cover.

I don't know what you mean by "stand up". I can insert the led, but it
doesn't stay.... it would easily come out and short against something.

Yes, I know :-)
You should have a little plastic LED holder thing. It's U-shaped with a
little tab on the 'bottom'. The one in my machine is black, but the
colour shouldn't matter, so this might be the clear plastic part you have.
U-shaped?? Hmm, maybe the little clear plastic thing I have is only
part of it :-( I may have to resort to tape :-(
The next problem I have is this.....
It seems to want to show me it's registers whenever I try using it now.
I'll start typing in a short counting program, and all of a sudden it
will beep and show me the registers. It doesn't turn on very reliably
either..... it gets power but I have to try a few times to get the
proper display. Any ideas? I though maybe reseating the chips may do
it, but I haven't had the time yet.

Uh-oh. Does it look like this?

If so, it's dumping you into the ROM monitor. I'm willing to bet you have
a RAM fault in the system. How many BASIC bytes do you have "free" (it
should be 122365) in the startup banner?

This is a good idea and may cure the first problem.
