Then raise a call with IBM Hardware: How do I create a PMR (aka Service Request) for support? http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21507639

Try the default password, "secure".

You will need to contact IBM support and after providing proper I.D. verification , they should be able to give you a password which you will be able to use. Due to security issues with stored info, you will have to provide the proper ID info as the original purchaser. Best Wishes

dear friend send me the solution i have seen the same recently with mine too

The manual is online with IBM. Chapter 8 explains the error codes and 9F (mean Error code) means Rotation range out of specification 08 9sub error code) means error during rotation initialisation, get range failed. Then the manual says: "Isolating a library controller card versus accessor enclosure problem" on page 7-11 But I guess you better look it up yourself. If you don't have any parts, you have to contact IBM. Look yourself? start in chapter 8, page 225 of the manual under this link. http://publibfp.dhe.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/a320545c.pdf

This may be caused by a bus level communication problem, try a restart. Power down the computer, power down the library, power up the library, wait for the library to finish initialization and verify from the control panel it is in an online/ready state, power up the computer.

Oh vintage 386sx? In old graphics cards, there were DIP Switches to configure either to use as monchrome mode or color mode. Did you configure graphics card properly ? Moreover try using mode command to change monochrome to color.

The IBM Wheelwriter 6 typewriter does not have a user-adjustable sensitivity setting for key strikes. However, the issue you're describing might be related to the keyboard mechanism, individual key switches, or the impact solenoid. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:

1. Clean and Lubricate: Over time, dust, dirt, and debris can accumulate inside the typewriter, affecting key movement. Try gently cleaning the keyboard area, especially around the key switches and mechanisms. Additionally, applying a small amount of appropriate lubricant to the moving parts might help improve key movement.
2. Key Switches: Each key has its own mechanical switch underneath. If a key requires more force than usual to activate, it could be due to a worn or dirty switch. You might need to disassemble the typewriter to access and clean the key switches.
3. Impact Solenoid: The impact solenoid is responsible for striking the print head against the paper to make an impression. If the solenoid is weak or sticking, it could result in the behavior you're describing. Try cleaning and lubricating the solenoid. If the problem persists, the solenoid might need to be replaced.
4. Key Flex: The flex you feel in the keyboard might be contributing to the issue. If the keyboard has any physical damage or if the flex circuit is not seated properly, it can affect key activation. Carefully inspect the keyboard area for any visible damage or misalignment.
5. Professional Repair: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it might be best to seek the assistance of a professional typewriter technician. They have experience with these machines and can diagnose and repair mechanical issues more accurately.

Tastiera indicated that you have a keyboard problem. Most desktops can't run without a working keyboard. (You need the keyboard connected and working during the power-on self test, POST.) Currently the motherboard can't communicate with the keyboard. What is the model number for your computer? I don't recall a Platinum III, just a Pentium III. Is it a laptop or a desktop? What type of keyboard do you have (USB or PS/2 connector) or is it the built-in one of a laptop? Are you using some sort of converter/adapter for the connections? The USB to PS/2 converter for a mouse does not work with a keyboard. There are some USB to dual PS/2 converters available. However, they don't work with with all motherboards. What OS is installed on the system? Try a different keyboard. (You should try a PS/2 keyboard if the system has PS/2 ports. If the OS is older than Windows 98 v. 2, then the USB ports are even more likely to not see the keyboard in POST.) If you use a USB keyboard, try different ports. If possible, make sure that the keyboards work on other machines. If it does, then I recommend replacing the system. The Pentium III is a ~20 year old CPU. That's certainly old enough to have major failures. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells
