[Coco] Fixing my "F" board TDP-100...

[Al Hartman]

Made some progress today:

- Power switch is bypassed, and jumpered as always-on. Power is controlled by another switch which breaks the mains AC line at the transformer. Tested and working.

- Reset switch is wired to a new momentary switch. Tested and working.

- Mark Data Products Composite Video adapter is reinstalled. Tested and working.

- Lowerkit is re-installed. Tested and working.

Computer boots up to a screen with some gibberish. I have either a bad CPU, or bad RAM. I’ll try swapping them later tonight or tomorrow. Then, I’ll burn the system in.

I have yet to test audio through the composite adapter, and the serial port. After everything else is tested, those will be next.

I’m pretty happy I got it all back together without any extra parts.
