I’ve got it loaded with original firmware now, but I’m still missing a keyboard which is where the configuration is stored in nvmem. I also don’t have the correct frequency oscillator installed for 132 char mode so that doesn’t work yet which seems to be where the original firmware defaults to.

Amazing how functional it is given the state you found it in.
I’m really impressed that you’re restoring that, sucks that you got that burn in on the CRT.
I love to see this stuff. I’m restoring a Color Computer 2 that looked like it spent 30 years in a barn, myself.
