Hey everyone!

I picked up a BBC Master 128 from an ad in the Diamond free ads. When I got
it home it worked fine, however, hen I switched it off, it would not come
back on again. A few days later, due to boredom, I tried switching it on
again. It worked. However, it only seems to want to work every couple of
days. I had it looked at and was told that the transformer in the power pack
was a little dodgy.

The last time I got it to work (yesterday evening) I got the Acorn MOS
message and then this: "This is not a language" and then just an asterix
(*). I have the Pen Down rom in it (already installed when I got it) I have
tried pushing on the Basic rom and it clicked further down into the slot.
However it still does register it.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Alan
