I am afraid this machine was rescued from a friend's shed after at least ten years. When it came to me, all I got was the continuous tone until various fiddling revealed that moving link 25 from North to South brought it to life in 16K mode. Maybe too many cold winters have taken their toll on the memory chips.

It was tape-only when I got it and I went to the trouble of putting in a disc upgrade so it will be a shame if I can't get it going properly.

Just a thought,

was it working before you added the DFS?

If so try reversing the upgrade and see if it cures it.
