The analog board on my 512E has finally bit the dust. The video has compressed into a thin vertical line while the rest of the computer still seems to work. After consulting with some people and resoldering a bunch of joints, I have deduced that it's C1 (a 3.9 microFarard, nonpolarized [high frequency]) capa- citor). I have looked around local electronics stores (i.e. Radio Shack) and they don't carry non-electrolytic capacitors with that high of a capacitance. If anyone works in an electrnonics laboratory or has one of these lying around, I would be more than willing to purchase it... I'm getting desperate so please respond by email if you know where I can get one of these... Thanks in advance...
