- I need some advice regarding my C64. When it is turned on, 1 of 2 things
- happens:
- 1)The screen is full of random characters in random colors
- 2)The screen is blank
-
- Usually it is #2. I've been reading this group for the last couple weeks and
- there seems to be a lot of problems with power supplies. Are these symptoms
- for a bad power supply or something more serious?
-
- The computer has worked flawlessly since around 1983 until about 2 months ago.
- I was glad to see that others are still using their Commodore products.
-
- I'd appreciate any help that the "experts" can give me!
