Seems it made it to the hub!

Sometimes it shows garbage on start, sometimes just a black screen. I'll leave it in, disabled.

Uh oh, that is not good. The second unit gives me a black screen with the expansion installed. I pushed in the RAM chips and got some junk on the screen instead.

Moving the jumper to 16K makes it boot up again, so at least I didn't kill the TED chip (I *did* bend its legs slightly on extraction, so I was worried).

So, are the RAM chips on the Fixteen bag, or the assembly? I have no clue. I'll lend it in, but turned off. At least the other one works fine.

So, does this make it a Commodore 64? Or maybe a Commodore Minus 4?

Not bad find for a Saturday morning.

#PCBWay delivers.

But I need something to pull the TED out without destroying it. It's not as simple as it looks in all those videos the repair guys keep publishing :-) So far all I've manged to do is to make scratch marks...

Got a C128-to-almost VGA adapter off eBay, but my monitors refuse to display anything.

But it got me to try it again, and run diagnostics. Unfortunately, it looks like it has some issues. Possibly the reason it was given away by it's previous owner.

I really should try to get this fixed...

@root42 This seems to indicate a single bit failure, which, according to the schematics, matches the one chip that was not the same as the others...

#Commmodore #C64

The #RetroScaler2x definitely does a better job. Still not as good as my old CRT, though.

#Commmodore #VIC20

Ah, the memories!

My cheap AliExpress CVBS-to-HDMI definitely does not like my #Commmodore #VIC20...

The most important things are of course the built-in wedge, and double-sided 1571 support.

I didn't even remember that I had installed #JiffyDOS in this #Commmodore1571 drive...

#Commmodore #VIC20

I now have #JiffyDOS on my #Commmodore #VIC20. Not sure how useful it is, though...

This one doesn't give any signs of life. No power LED, no serial bus reset, nothing.

I'm not sure I tested it when I got it, or if I only tested the other unit.

#Commmodore #Commodore16

This one, not so much.

#Commmodore #Commodore16

Still the most beautiful home computer ever made, IMHO.

What is old is new again.

#Commmodore #VIC20

When I scrapped my broken #Commmodore C128DCR a decade and a half ago, I kept the SID chip. Prefect for an Ultimate 64.

Checked it today. It's the wrong chip... I accidentally saved the CIA chip instead. Oops! 😊

Av ny #Commmodore gurus out there who knows if it is possible to dump an autostarting #VIC20 cartridge on an unmodified VIC?

That could have looked better...

I guess that cheap upscaler from Ali Express doesn't quite like the C128 pseudo-PAL
