The M100 power supply requires parts of the M100 to be working before it starts running correctly. From memory, it's the minus 5v rail. I'd start by ensuring that the backup battery was charged, and double checking all voltage rails. I'd also try a cold reset. Doug On Mon, 26 Dec 2022, 6:26 am

Thank you Brian! And you too Steve for the assist. I'm not actually sure it is even hiting the highest notes. I didn't actually code up all the numbers in the BASIC program and instead wrote a C program that generated the BASIC. I entered the song from sheet music into a text file and then

Well what's a little holiday without some hardware to fix! I think how i would tackle this is to trace the positive voltage from battery through to the transformer. See if there is a place where positive voltage is missing. If that looks good then the transformer circuit must not be oscillating.

So I decided to try recapping one of my two Model 100s. The ones I replaced all looked okay, no sign of leakage; I replaced the batter which did have some corrosion on it. I used a Model 100 recap kit, but as the voltages didn't match on some of the caps, I decided not to replace those. Lik
