Osborne 1 (1981)

AFAIK, this was the first portable computer.

I am sure that @anachrocomputer has already seen this, but just in case he hasn't...

Ok, dumb noob question about creating a Ruud's diagnostic ROM for my IBM 5150 64k-256k board. This is the first time I'm using any of this stuff.

I have 4 MCM68766 EPROMs from eBay, T48 programmer, & Xgpro v13.16 on a Windows 11 Pro PC.

I load the IC into the T48 in the correct orientation. In Xgpro, I load ruuds_diagnostic_rom_v5.5_8kb.bin. Then click PROG & I get "Pin in incorrect postion!" error.

What the heck am I doing wrong?!

I've just published a new video. This time about my failed EPSON PX-8 repair. But who knows, maybe one of you has an idea how I can fix it. 😃
