Hello all - Would anyone happen to have an Atari 1050 disk drive/power brick I could borrow for Fesitvus? I am in the process of testing the two machines I'm bringing to display and have discovered neither of my 1050 disk drives power on. The power brick measures ok with no load, but it drops to zero as soon as I plug it in to the drive itself. I'm not sure if the problem lies with the drive or the power brick and I'm not sure I have enough time to figure out as I am leaving in a few hours.Thanks so much.CJ
I have one I can bring for you to use for testing, I gave away all my extras. I will bring my 1088XEL and use it for a 8bit games machine if there is an extra TV from Ian. -andy On Fri, Dec 6, 2019 at 9:47 AM thedestructionchannel2000 via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I've got 9 televisions in the car, there will probably be one available to use - we can always switch out what's hooked up to what. -Ian On Fri, Dec 6, 2019 at 9:54 AM Andrew Diller via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

There are also a few in the warehouse if absolutely needed, although we'd all rather avoid warehouse stuff during a party if possible. On Fri, Dec 6, 2019, 10:05 AM Ian Primus via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

what kind of monitor/output do you need for the XEL? On Fri, Dec 6, 2019 at 9:54 AM Andrew Diller via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

That is the awesome part - it does composite via RCA, SVIDEO, RGB (ST monitor plug) or DVI... So what ever is there and available. -andy
