Hello everyone, first post here!
I recently got my hands on a Olivetti M240 with MD 12A monitor. Cleaned it all up and removed the leaking battery. (haven't replaced it yet, so currently nothing there) The rest looks to be in quite decent condition. It powers on and boots just fine, floppy drives work and even the HDD is detected!
The wird thing is, the text on screen doesn't start on the first line, and also does not scroll. The graphics card (GO 467) doesn't seem to have any adjustment options.
I've connected the monitor to my Commodore64, as it is just composite and it seems to work ok. no wonky line placement.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions i'd love to hear. Can it be the missing battery?
Pic of weirdness attached!
