My QL was 20 in November 84. I don't remember the exact date, but I
still have the invoice somewhere in the handbook. It was version JM
imported to France by a non official reseller. It still works well.
Including the microdrives.

work, I happened through the ReadMe file, and there "in front of God & country"
as they say, was:

The normal QL power supply is not enough to power the QL CPU - 68008 and the
Gold Card.
Remove the CPU from the QL and plug the Gold card into the QL and this may
solve your problem, assuming there are no bent or damaged pins on the
expansion port.

I don't think that will be the problem. GC takes much less power than
SGC - and I have no trouble with my QLs and SGC.
