Sorry if this is a silly question, but an Apple //c I recently purchased doesn't seem to boot up. It starts the drive and beeps, but there isn't any video on the screen. (The screen is connected via RF, and I've tried toggling 80/40 columns) If it helps, I'm running it on a 12v power supply. (I think the original one was 15v...) Is this machine broken, or is it human error?

Apple //c starts drive, makes beep, black screen
Also, the screen seems to lock into the signal, so something is comng in from the //c.
Cranberry,
Did you place a disk into the drive before powering up? You didn't say.
No, I didn't.
Cranberry,
Does she work now?
I didn't realize that the //c cannot output in RF. I had the composite out plugged into the RF on my television. (I'm rather surprised that it synced at all!) Well, I feel like the biggest idiot ever. Thanks for the help!
