Title: PC 1512 - error: faulty system ram
Post by: trolleymaster on 12:36, 30 December 21

Hi folks
hoping someone can assist


I've acquired an Amstrad PC1512 which starts up but then displays :


error: faulty system ram


So I have put new sockets in and replaced all the ram chips suspecting one or more to be faulty, but still get the error.
I was very careful to ensure that I used the same type of chip 41256-15

Can anyone offer the next thing to try ?


Thanks in advance !
Simon

Is LK4 set correctly? I can't recall if it is soldered or jumpered, but is used to select 512K or 640K.
