Hi all, just been given a Barcrest Monty Pythons flying circus from a friend everything was disconnected when i got it and managed to finally get it to work after a bit of messing now everytime i turn the machine on i  get "hey check it out" nothing on either of the LCD's but the HALT status light flashes red 5 times then goes green then 5 times then loops any ideas?

 

 

Kind Regards,
Jason Waterfield

Is the program cartridge properly seated?

What do you mean when you say that everything was disconnected when you got it? As in all the wiring inside?

Yawn, they pop up everywhere. Same guy on the Mecca.

 

If a machine is knackered, why do people buy it or if take it if it's free, if they don't have a clue what how to get them going without trying every forum they can find?

So had all of the connectors been pulled out before you got it?

I was watching Terminator the other night and that's where the 'Hey, check it out' comes from. Unless I fell asleep and dreamt it

You'd need to find someone near you with an EPROM reader/programmer.
