This was an interesting one. When it arrived years back, it had a slight issue with a flickering image that'd drop the green out from time to time. I stored it after moving house, and earlier this year brought it out to play with.

Dead as a doornail. Boo.

After a few days of gentle watching, and a whole motherboard wash, re-wire of a missing analog board edge connector pin (looks like it once had a VGA mod done to it), re-solder of at least three dry joints  and a new HD, it's up and running just as well as a Colour Classic The First can run.

Not terribly quickly .

But that's OK. Now to re-find the 575 board I'm sure I had around here before...
