AppleSoft ROM Errors

[Anonymous]

Heyo,
I’m aware this may has been posted elsewhere, but I’m not sure how to describe the problem.

Upon receiving my Apple IIe (Rev B), I ran Applecillin II and the Apple II Plus dealer service program, and they both seem to have errors regarding ROM F0 and F8. I assume I have to replace these or maybe reflash them, but I don’t know what to do or where they’re located. Any advice?

UPDATE: I found the Apple IIe diagnostic V2.1 disk, and that passes the ROM check without error.

Your machine is fine. Your using apple 2 plus software to test an apple 2e. It might run fine (that was apple's goal after all), but the rom checksums they used weren't the same.

Oh! Okay, thanks. I assumed Applecillin II was a good starting point for diagnostics. Are there any programs that would be recommended for an IIe?

The built in self test you ran confirmed all is good.. it makes sure all the checksums are correct. You can use the other programs to test peripherals, but because they were written before 2e was a glimmer in apple's eyes the checksums weren't included.

I'm not sure if there is a diagnostics written specifically for the 2e (or platinum for that matter). If someone else knows of one can they chime In.

There's an official Apple IIe / IIc diagnostic program. I think you can find it on Asimov.

If you can’t find it, I believe I have a physical copy. PM me if you want it and I’ll see if I can dig it out and make a copy and mail it to you.
