I apologise for the delay, I've been very busy with other things. However, I had some time to look at the epsom and this is what I found:

Thanks again for your incredibly helpful information. For now I will post a picture of my oscilloscope that I am borrowing. It does have a BNC plug on the back labeled (EXT TRIGGER)...

Retrogear, thanks for the advice. I tried my best to follow what you said but I don't think I get it. This is my first time using a scope for any real work so maybe you need to dumb it down a bit. It...

Thank you so much for this information! The computer responds completely normally, i was able to run a dir command and type normally, if i ignored the garbled output. It seems to solely be a video...

Also, I know I'm triple posting, which I'm sure is frowned upon, but I'm working on Revelations as they come. I visited a standard CPM disk and recorded how it acts when typing. I also reseated all...

no longer needed, thanks!

Good news! I used a schematic I made for the cable, pulled apart the DIN shell, and rewired it to the correct pinout. I got video!

It's not perfect, I think...

For anyone that saw my other thread, iec.net sent me a bad cable and as of now it's the only online shop I can find listing a cable for the qx-10. Does anyone have a spare video cable that is...

Apparently my last response here got deleted, so I'm retyping it. I got my hands on a scope and pinouts for the cable. I determined via the old cbale that it works fine except for the severed video...

Unfortunately the new cable seems to be no dice. Somehow it seems to work less than the old one: the crt won't power on with it, which on the old damaged cable, it would at least let me turn the...

I actually managed to find that site, it was iec.net. it's arriving later today so I'll soon update on whether or not it solves my issues.

Funnily enough, I called ahead because I wanted to make...

Thank you for the information on compatible drives! I unfortunately don't really have the time to source and mod a drive so I hopefully can find someone willing to do this for me. I'm also unsure how...

Lafos, the model number is FB-354AA rev A.

Thanks for the info on modding PC drives, hopefully I don't have to do that. I'm still hoping I can find someone to repair mine or sell a replacement.

Thank you for this information, I did note that one end of the video cable is somewhat frayed and could possibly be damaged. Is it possible that even thought the monitor powers on (12v from cable)...

I just recently got my first Atari ST (1040STF) but the disk drive seems to be totally dead. I am looking for a replacement or someone who can do repairs on it. I have posted a picture of the type I...

I apologize for the double post but apparently I cannot edit old messages. This is a video of the computer booting with the monitor cranked to maximum brightness. I get no image otherwise, but it...

Happy news! I got the power supply to work after swapping in some new components: all voltages are correct and the computer lights up. However, I do not get the "insert diskette" messages that I...

I just had the good fortune to pick up an Epson qx-10 set and couldn't wait to plug it in. When I did so, it wouldn't turn on. The power supply had a blown fuse but even after replacing it I still...

Looking for any spare librettos to fix my 110CT. Don't care about working as long as the screen is good (nice case plastics is a plus). I'm in Texas, US. Advice on fixing my current LCD would also be...

the issue intermittently disappears and usually reappears after around 15 minutes of usage. They always follow this exact pattern.

I have just today gotten a Libretto 110CT which I really love, however the right side of the screen is covered in veritcal lines one pixel apart. Sometimes pressing on the back plastic behind the...

I have two commodore drives, neither of which work correctly. My 1541 continuously spins and my 1571 doesn't spin up at all. I don't have the expertise to fix them, wanted to know if anyone in my...

I now have a compatible power adapter and finally got to fire it up! It beeped on power on, both drives spun up, went into basic. Gives me a clock error on bootup but that's because it keeps...

I got my power supply in and my PC Convertible is working like a champ, minus a few issues mainly revolving around the screen, so I'm looking for a new one. I'd absolutely love if anyone had a...

Thank you so much, I should definitely be able to find one now.
