Troubleshooting Vintage Computers #1 - Evaluation

About this video

Troubleshooting vintage computers starts with an evaluation of the basic subsystems a machine needs to work. The findings then point to a direction for further tests in this first part of a series.

Good to know: First of a series. Old supplies carry mains voltage and capacitors that stay charged after unplugging.

Why watch it

Method comes before any repair here, and a tentative list of later topics starts with diagnostic ROMs and power supplies, so this is the place to begin the series.
