    Newton Message Pad

    I'm a newbie on this forum.

    I have an original Newton Message pad and was wondering if I might damage it electronically if I power it up for too long. I powered it on for only about 1 minute just to see if it had any life left in it.

    Any idea how many capacitors should be replaced or other updates I should expect before it could become reliable?

    T490 error message 2203 Skip acknowledgement of an error message
    by rumpumpel1
    I have a T490 that displays the error message “2203: System configuration is invalid” immediately after the Lenovo logo every time it boots up.
    This message must be acknowledged with 'Esc'. On the one hand, I cannot eliminate the problem, on the other hand, I have not observed any other restrictions.
    Is it possible to change the BIOS so that this message no longer has to be acknowledged?

    Does the Oak OTI067 have a splash screen / initialization message at bootup?
    by Scruit
    tl;dr ... Question: Does the Oak OTI067 have a splash screen / initialization message at bootup?

    More detail:

    Working on "Uncle Sherman", my Mitsubishi MP-3200 386 from 1988. Before I start up old computers I have a process where I disassemble, test for shorts, visually inspect, capture EPROM images etc.

    My T866II+ give me a "pins not detected" error on the EPROM from the Oak-based (OTI067 GPU but apparently a no-name card??) I assumed the EPROM was bad, ordered a replacement and figured I'd program a downloaded ROM image to it....

    Technics SA-AX530 in protected mode. Overload message
    by Francesc V.
    I got a request from a friend of mine to have a look to his amplifier. When switching on "OVERLOAD" was displaying, however from time to time, message disappears and protection was removed.
    I took some time in visual inspection (no bold caps, no solder joins, no burnt components neither hot burnt areas). I took some time to measure transistors and diodes. Everything seemed ok.

    I realized that when OVERLOAD was on, pin 13 on IC601 (RSN307M44A-P) measured 5V. From time to time, when Amplifier was not protected pin 13 measured the right -1.5V
    (Pin 13 goes through...

    Atten ST862D hot air station weird message!!
    by petemanuk
    Went to use my Atten ST862D hot air station today all fired up as normal but after few min's the heat stopped (air stil blowing) and the display popped up with the messasge COL.

    I've read the manual (all 6 pages of it) from cover to cover but no mention of a display message COL ??

    I'm guessing the heating element has gone and will investigate futher but just wondered if enyone else with an Atten ST862D has seen this message an knew what it ment? Just incase its something else.
