Hi all

New around these parts.

I recently discovered my Falcon after a house move, and decided to boot it up and play some old favourites :D

Having brought back some fond memories, it now sits next to my Mac and PC in my office, and I jump on it when not working ;)

Hooked up to a 19" TFT using a VGA adaptor, and looks better than ever. Fan is on it's last legs and the RTC is up the spout, so I hope to replace those this weekend.....wish me luck :D

:welcomewave:

:swave:

Welcome on board!

Always good to have another Falcon back in regular use!
:D

Welcome back!

Feel free to post a photo of your setup. I love seeing them!

Don't be afraid to ask for here for advice before changing the fan and NVRAM. It's not hard, but there are a few nuances you may want to know and there's no such thing as a silly question. :)

:welcomewave:


NVRAM :)

Well, for some reason, everything seems to be quite in the world of IT support today, so I will probably do the fan and NVRAM this afternoon :)

Just so I am 100% on this, I reset the NVRAM BEFORE I do the install?

You "reset" it after you have fitted it with with one of the reset programs which sets it up with all default values.

Perfect, thank you :D
