I just acquired a PS/2 Model 25, the one with an integrated monitor and
8086. The reason it was being thrown away was that while it starts up
fine, the MCGA monitor eventually becomes tinted red and blurry. If I
turn it off and let it sit for a few minutes, then turn it on, it will
work fine again. What is the problem? Can I solve it without the risk of
shorting
capacitors and blowing myself halfway across the room?
My understading is that this machine needs no reference disks, but
can I use a hard drive > 20MB? It never mentions it on IBM's site.
Lastly, does anyone have any of the original stuff for it, ie software,
manuals, etc.
