Hehe yes I already checked that. I tried wiggling stuff around but
still nothing. At that point I starting searching around online and
came across a post about someone whacking his 128k to get the display
back. It was painful but I whacked mine once and sure enough it
exhibited the exact same behaviour except the display doesn't "stick"
after I whack it. I see the display momentarily then it immediately
goes back to the black screen. It really sounds like bad/cracked/old
solder so I'm going to try that first.
