The CLK pin of the 6845 seems to be connected to pin Q2 of a 74HC161 High-Speed CMOS Logic Presettable Counter.

Datasheet here.

I need to follow the tracks on the composite view of the Dragon Plus to see where the inputs are coming from.

You could try the FLEX User Group. There are two addresses, no doubt one is the mirror of the other.

Thanks, should prove useful. The error simply says DISK FILE READ ERROR, could the image be bad or do I have more issues, who knows!
