KOJRO Retro innovations | The Commodore 64 resurrection series, Part 3, Not a complete VIC-tory @kojroRI | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 23 minutes ago.
This is the third part of a series of videos where we celebrate the 40-year anniversary of the Commodore 64 by doing a bunch of repair videos. I have a lot of old C64’s both single motherboards and complete systems. Nearly all of them need some kind of attention now, and many of them have been neglected now for the best part of 30 years, and shows the sign of that. In the prequel to this series I did build a SixtyClone board to have as a reference, and tool to test chips and other peripherals. This time it’s also a 250407, but rev B, this is bit rarer than the rev C boards. This board is just missing the SID Chip, and there has been no major work done, just soldering on the CPU sometime in the past. We uncover no less than 2 faults on this board. I do appreciate feedback, and I find it difficult to maintain a good rhythm on these repairs, so some pointers will be appreciated. So happy birthday C64, and as an appreciation for the community and the future of the remaining C64’s out there. Here is my number 3 video in the C64 Resurrection series, so let’s celebrate our favorite 8-bit computer. #C64 #Commodore #RetroComputer
