It's an IBM 5160. In the photos, the keyboard is one I had on hand, but I currently have the original one working. (It's just that I haven't updated the photos). Also, I'm not sure if the hard drive works or not. Wasn't it that in the forum we couldn't talk about politics?

It seems like it did. When you turn it on, you hear the floppy reader spin, then a bip, and then you see the hdd light turn on for a second. I will look for the manual online. Thank u

Hi Verault, I saved this PC from almost going to the trash; there was 30 years or more of dust and grease on it. I joined this community to learn more about it because I fell in love with it. I started cleaning it carefully, part by part, because when I found it, it still worked. When I...

The problem was the keyboard, i fixed it. But i dont know assembler (i believe it is assembler), so i don't know how to continue

I have the same cable like you jafir, i'm going to try again to see if i can make it work (UPDATE) IT WORKED, THANK EVERYONE Now i have to find a better way to attach the cable to the pc

I HAVE THE SAME KEYBOARD and the same pc, i would die to know how the cable of your keyboard looks. If you have a multimeter or a digital tester to measure continuity, we could deduce what color cable corresponds to the DIN pin. Because if you look at the part that you connect to the keyboard...

Good morning eveyone. I took the wire and stripped it to see what was inside and comparing it to the image above, I think the "green wire" is the all silver wire it has. I would like to clarify that the keyboard model is M and the part number is 1391494. The date is January 16, 1987. (Update)...

When I press enter nothing happens. I must warn you that I stupidly cut the keyboard cable, and I had to search and ask in the forum how to connect it. Maybe there is a cable that is connected incorrectly or I am missing something. Here I leave you the photo.

Just booted, never happened before I'm too excited to think i believe that the pc doesn't recognise the keyboard because when i press the keys nothing happens, maybe i'm doing something wrong

I know about the boot error, i haven't tried fixing it. I could use a bit of help resolving it.

Thanks Krebizfan for the response. There I added where I'm from. Could you explain to me what a Lisa prototype is?

Hello to all the people of this prestigious forum. I'm from Argentina. As you can tell from the title, I'm trying to find out the price of my PC. I leave you images of it in a google drive link. If you have any questions about the internal components, please don't hesitate to ask...
