Hi All,

My QL went dead yesterday.
Just thick horizontal lines and random pixels at the top of the screen.
Reset button inactive, microdrives inactive after power-on.

ULA ? Other big chip ?

If any idea, I'll be glad !

DRAM memory chip(s) are also likely suspects.

Do you have a Gold card? (Or can borrow one?)

Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb :!:
Looking forward to summer in Somerset later in the year :)
