Subject: Re: newbie question

OK from a post a *long* time ago, I typed in the following programme:

10 *TV 0,1
20 mode 2
30 repeat
40 gcol 0,rnd(15)
50 plot 85,rnd(1279),rnd(1024)
60 until 0

When I RUN it, I get patterns all over the screen. What *should* it look
like?

Funny thing is, obviously, there's no problem typing a programme in, and the
memory must be OK, 'cos I can RUN it.
Just the video is screwy.

I'm not sure about my previous post. MA7 *sometimes* flashes to +5v.

So I'm left with assuming that one of the video components is bad, but which
one?

If anyone wants to see what the screen looks like, I can take a picture of
it, and email that. I dunno if that would help.
