Thanks for the Control-Reset tip! I would have never gotten anywhere without it.

Well I ordered a ROM chip online from the previous eBay link I mentioned. I installed the chip and the system works. I can use the Color Checkerboard test and it says "SYSTEM OK".

Now my problem is still booting to a disk drive. With the internal drive plugged in it gives me a 'CHECK DISK DRIVE' message. If I remove the internal drive I can't seem to boot to my external 5 1/4 drive. (Which works fine on my IIGS). I tried turning on my system, it hangs, so I press Control-Reset, then I try typing PR#5 and my disk drive will blink, and then it will say 'CHECK DISK DRIVE". So I'm stuck. Maybe I have more bad chips or something wrong with my Apple IIc?

I'd really love to get this thing to work. Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks! :D
