After executing the power-on sequence and getting the "Microsoft" message,
did you execute the BASIC command "SCREEN 1,1" from the Model 102?
The above command switches output to the CRT on the DVI and displays the
key labels at the bottom of the CRT.

Hey, Wayne
As I read it you're just expressing a low tolerance for risk. You don't
want to lose your $100. I totally understand. As others have said before

When you attempt to load the program/document with the commands:

CLOAD "whatever the file name is"
Does the tape player turn on and do you shortly hear screeching sounds from
the M100?

Hey, Jeff
Its nothing like a real exorciser but I've been running the following code
on BASIC language machines since I was a kid to see how the machine will
respond and how long it will run. It's more fun to watch than anything
else.
10 CLS
20 FOR N=0 TO 65535
30 X=PEEK(N)
40 IF X < 32 THEN 60
Well that looks like an awesome accessory. One of those, "Why didn't I
think to look for one of those?", moments. I want to try one of those.

My thanks for the responses. And that is a great point John. Cautions are

Out of curiosity, can you speak to how many subscribers, active

First I have to apologize to the group for misleading about the cable.
When I took the covers off the cable I built I was dismayed to find that I

Justin, Georg, and Brian. Many thanks for your assistance on this. I'll
get the cable up to spec and verify physical layer is the way it's supposed
to be, try again, and report back. I'll also test with mComm as that
appears to be a better way to get the client installed.
Thanks again!
