Well I bought a Monitor II, Apple IIe, Disk II, Parallel Pro Card, 80 column card, etc. It was complete in all the boxes, with manuals and disks, and extra parts with only little use, only $50 a fair deal I guess, but after a week of me getting it, it started acting flakey. I would turn it on and vertical bars would appear on the screen, no disk drive activity, no beep, no "Apple II" at the top of the screen, and no Dos 3.3 when the disk is in the drive or "check your startup device" (or whatever it says in the message when there is no disk). When It first started happening, I could just turn it off for a second and turn it back on and it would work fine, but the periods of time I would have to wait in between shut-off and reboot for it to work kept on getting longer. And now no matter how long I wait it won't work on boot-up. I hope I gave all the information in good articulation, but if u have any questions feel free to ask.
If anybody has any suggestions I am open to any, because I am out of them. I want my new favorite apple to work again. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
