I have just taken my c64 and 1541 out of mothballs. While trying to set it up I ran into two problems I was hoping somebody could clue me in. 1. My 1541 instructions are lost so this may sound dumb... but my disk drive motor keeps running constantly when I turn it on. I turned it on then the c64 but no luck. Do I need to service it? 2. Something is wrong with the video output to my color tv. It seems to be a grid of alternating blue and white squares. Ive tried to poke an ascii character into it but no luck. However I got the color of the square to change. Its hard to see, but the commands still work... just the screen dosent show it. Thanks in advance Larry Mingione
