Thumbnail for my video, showing my workbench with a C64 board on in and several tools scattered around. In the background, the monitor shows the blue C64 BASIC screen. The overlayed text reads "Blue Screen of Life C64 Repair".

Checking out the STID version of the #Commodore64 #DeadTest cartridge. Comes with an added SID filter test and some more colors to test the graphics. Neat! Available here: github.com/stid/kick-c64-dead-
