Apple IIgs monitor only displaying a single horizontal line

Submitted by jdmoser on September 26, 2016 - 12:57pm

I've already searched the forum to no avail, and I don't know the first thing to start troubleshooting this problem. The IIgs itself works fine through composite out, but the RGB monitor only displays this solitary horizontal line. I just acquired the monitor last month and have been waiting on a cable which just arrived today, so I have no idea if it's the monitor, or the cable, or something else entirely.

Help is definitely appreciated, haha. Thanks!

Apple II and IIgs Inheritance

Submitted by RetroGamer145 on September 24, 2016 - 5:02pm

To make a long story short, last year my parents' house was destroyed by a tornado. Luckily, all of their vintage computer stuff was in the detached garage which wasn't hit nearly as bad. They didn't want to move the computers etc. into their new home so I inherited it all.

I am now the proud owner of an Apple II (A2S1 - 15963) with a Sanyo VM4209 monitor and an Apple IIgs.

In addition to all of the hardware, they kept practically everything software related except boxes for the Apple II stuff. Follow the link to see what I've cataloged so far.

Archiving and saving all my disks

Submitted by Keatah on September 22, 2016 - 5:37pm

The short version:
I'm looking for ideas and suggestions on how to best save/transfer all my disks (as a final Apple II project) to the PC. There's lots to be saved and it is my intent to trickle them down to asimov for all to enjoy. Been prattling on about this for a long while. And if I don't start this in the next couple of days I'll never get it done. So I've made a few practice runs.

Changes to my BBS

Submitted by skipper1947 on September 17, 2016 - 10:36am

I have been thinking of ways to try and make my Apple II BBS more relevant to modern times.

I have hidden all the old story subs (though they are still there if one wants to look), modified a few others and added a couple that might be more appropriate, such as "old computers and such" and "board and computer games".

I have added additional ProTERM Special support.

If anybody has a suggestion on other ways to make the BBS less of an anachronism, I would be happy to listen. Smile

Thanks,
