I saw your msg on KERMIT and the Commodore 64 and since I am new to
this net, I thought I would see if you could give some help. I recently bought
a Commodore 64 and drive which had a problem. The power supply works fine,
but the screen blinks at a uniform rate and is objectionable--obviously not the
correct performance. I suspect the peripheral interface chip/s. I understand
Commodore doesnt sell its chips. Here are the questions: Is there anyway
to get the chips I need, short of running an advertisement for used equipment?
Do you know the numbers for the various chips and their functions?
I would appreciate any answer, or referral to someone who might be able
to provide further light.
Thanks---- Don
