Not a 100% sure , but it sounds like you need to load the O.S. from floppy disk again.
And then if that works, if i remember correctly, there's a big chance you need to save the O.S.
to the internal memory again.

good luck !

yeah then it soudns like it's ascreen problem deffinetly.have you tried to adjust the contrast on it ?


6 DATA wheel
This allows you to change the numbers or data of
the selected field. The data variably increases the
faster the wheel is turned.

To set the contrast of the LCD, rotate the DATA
wheel while holding down the SHIFT key. This can
be done at any time, regardless of the mode you
are in.
