  1. Sometimes it shows garbage on start, sometimes just a black screen. I'll leave it in, disabled.

  2. Uh oh, that is not good. The second unit gives me a black screen with the expansion installed. I pushed in the RAM chips and got some junk on the screen instead.

    Moving the jumper to 16K makes it boot up again, so at least I didn't kill the TED chip (I *did* bend its legs slightly on extraction, so I was worried).

    So, are the RAM chips on the Fixteen bag, or the assembly? I have no clue. I'll lend it in, but turned off. At least the other one works fine.

  3. So, does this make it a Commodore 64? Or maybe a Commodore Minus 4?

  4. #PCBWay delivers.

    But I need something to pull the TED out without destroying it. It's not as simple as it looks in all those videos the repair guys keep publishing :-) So far all I've manged to do is to make scratch marks...

  5. This one doesn't give any signs of life. No power LED, no serial bus reset, nothing.

    I'm not sure I tested it when I got it, or if I only tested the other unit.
