Re: TF1260 stuff

Re: 1040STe locks up or bombs out after warming up

I would suggest trying the HC type CPU and see if that helps.. As troed said also, you may need to change the SIL resistors.. what values are on the address and databus on your machine ? (they are located around the CPU & blitter ). All the red ones like on this image.. https://www.exxosforum.c...

Hi Folks! I'm having some troubles with my 1040STe. I picked this machine up a couple years ago from the UK. I replaced the PSU with a 110v psu so I wouldn't have to use a step up transformer to power it. Problem is this: Once first powered on everything generally works fine. After about 15 to 25 mi...
