Bit of an odd one this.
Old Commodore 1084ST. Left running all day, generally showing signs of being a bit knackered (flyback whine, blurry corners) but fully working. But just now when I've had my back turned, died!
Now it just shows a vertical white line, which once a second collapses into a white dot, then expands to a line again. Monitor power LED turns on and off with this, and it also makes noise like it's powering on and off.
I know this is a rare variant, but I guess CRTs are all similar enough... I can't find any manuals online. What part failure is this, normally?
