The Mysterious Beep: My Adventure with a Forever Beeping BBC Micro

Title: The Mysterious Beep: My Adventure with a Forever Beeping BBC Micro

In this video, I dive into the bizarre world of my BBC Micro, which seems to have developed a mind of its own—constantly beeping without end! Join me as I explore every possible solution, from using an oscilloscope to troubleshoot the problem to trying other unconventional methods to silence this forever beeping machine.

Will I be able to stop the madness and finally get the BBC Micro working, or is it destined to beep forever? Watch to find out and join me on this retro tech adventure filled with unexpected twists, turns, and of course—beeps!
