Just bought a 1994 Robofil 300, which was reported by two different ex employees to work perfectly, and yet when I turn it on the fans and all come to life, monitor comes on but get a "no signal found" error on the screen. So, one thinks graphics card kaput or something...but the weird thing is the company had another identical machine with a brand new LCD monitor, and damned if it doesn't have the exact same error !
The other issue is I think both machines were missing their boot up floppy disks... I have some floppies but they seem to be for diagonistics and such, not the main operations disk. Do the machines by chance require the right disk in the floppy for the monitor to work ?? Seems highly unlikely, but also seems highly unlikey that two Robofils would just happen to have the exact same monitor issue, so I'm wondering what the heck is going on.
