Apple II

So, I have this Apple ][+ that I picked up a few years ago that had been sitting in a basement for some 25 years. It worked perfectly, but I eventually just left it on my shelf. I haven't used it in about 7-8 months, so I decided to fool around with it a couple of days ago. However, when I tried to turn it on, nothing appeared on the screen and the computer made this strange repeated beeping noise. I'm not quite sure where it's coming from, but it certainly does not sound like the speaker.

So I managed to get a CFFA3000 card from someone. Should be labeled CFFA-USB-3000. At first when it came, the person included a CF card (I forgot how big they were) and I realized I don't have a CF card reader/writer for my Mac. Then I started reading the manual. I could use a USB key!!!! A couple of hours later copying down the Azimov image archive over FTP (26+gb, ok I grabbed the whole thing I can clean it up later), I was in business.

An Apple ][, Craigslist, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

So, if I try to do a Speediboot from ADTPro, I do the IN#2, then the ctrl-a, and don't get a SSC> prompt. It also won't speediboot. I can load the ADTPro from a floppy, and transfer files, so it isn't a big issue, but wondering what is going on. This is on my new (to me) apple //e platinum. I've tried 2 super serial cards, in several slots, same thing. Thanks.
