I have quite a few of my machines that I switch on regularly to check they are running fine. Generally they are the ones I have restored and or have had things like batteries removed and belts replaced. One such computer is the Amstrad MegaPC which is an Amstrad with a MegaDrive inside. I have two working . Anyhoo I was a little troubled that the monitor didn't fire up, particularly as Amstrads are notorious for using only their own monitors. So I set to the bench for further investigation. Having checked over the monitor I discovered the push button on and off button wouldn't stay in the on position. This is quite a common fault with monitors. You can either risk damaging the monitor by opening up and trying to mend the switch, or you can simply jam a cocktail stick in to hold it down. I prefer the old cocktail stick fix. Anyway both the MegaPC computers were working and so gave me a chance to play Bodgit the Dodgik.... or something like that. Its been a long day.. sorry.
