The C16 is cleaned and reassembled. Not pictured is the filthy Datasette that will be restored at a later date. I haven't installed the diode to allow it to work yet anyway. I'll probably pop that in when I upgrade the RAM.

This was such a satisfying repair. The machine had a blown fuse and a dead CPU. I'm just happy the TED chip was not destroyed as that would have been harder/more expensive to work around.

Last night I spent some time building an adapter to connect the C64 6510 CPU to the C16. I burnt a modified KERNAL ROM image from Andy @ hackjunk.com and was surprised to see I still couldn't access my Pi1541.

Silly me naïvely didn't follow the wiring diagrams for the CPU adapter and just sort of wired the external registers with a "near enough is good enough" approach, P0 to P0, P1 to P1 etc. A couple of the registers are actually supposed to be swapped over.

After correcting my mistake, the C16 boots! I've given the case a wash and pulled the keycaps off. The keyboard fully works but it is filthy.

To do:
Clean keycaps and reassemble case
Install diode for cassette motor line
Look into modding to increase RAM to 64k
Clean and repair datasette and joystick

Back in 2021..my first self-developed logic game PHASE OUT for the Commodore 64 was realeased in 2014 by RGCD and Psytronik. After this time I made some bug fixes and created new level packs for the game. For my self-publishing I used new cover plastic sleeves with printed paper inserts and put the game on 5 1/4-inch floppy disks...

The keyboard is dusty, but all the keys work! The left and right cursor keys were missing their springs for some reason, bit I found some similarly sized ones.

Perfect to „showcase“ my C64-Boards.

„Case“ is done by Plexilaser and badge, once more, from Retrobadgeman.

Ideal um meine C64-Boards zu präsentieren.
