Solve : Basic Issue's C64!!!? |
|
Answer» I like the title.... seeing the board traces were the data gores an such. So that's where it goes. I always wondered about that.no no, it gores there, so it explodes into a little pile of electronic giblets. I've always wanted to see data gore itself.Quote from: BC_Programmer on February 09, 2009, 09:52:00 AM I've always wanted to see data gore itself.Gore, or Core? They're two different things. One of them I don't particularly recommend you watching....Well, I'll have to get a C64 I guess, since as Squall says that's where the data gores...no i ment what I posted this was probably a problem that they all had at one point or another. The thing is that it saved the data I issued it to do that command an seen it happen.still strange i formatted the disk and even saved a small part of code that I had done. I just told it to print"" an save what it spat out an everything but it wouldnt load or anything.and where are you saving this to? are you sure the disk drive/ cassette works properly?They were famous for being unreliable in the 1980s, so God knows what one would be like now, especially if has not moved in years. might explain the "goring"... ah I see, i'm attempting to save it to a disk. wish I had the tape drive mite work better??Quote from: Dead Reckon on February 08, 2009, 05:09:45 PM Oh, and there's a stereo that was bought in 1969 downstairs in the dining room. Old Delmonico stereo, grandma bought it new in '69 before moving to Florida, she gave it to her mother before moving, then got it back after her trip to ALASKA shortly after they moved back here to Virginia. Anyway, the stereo is mint, turntable don't work, but the AM/FM tuner works, sounds pretty good. Its uh, 60W I think, don't think its ever been serviced. I use a Sansui AU-505 amplifier from 1973 every day. I bought it in 1990 for 15 UK POUNDS from a guy who had bid for it at an auction as part of a mixed lot. He didn't know what it was, thought it was junk. I use it with a modern CD player and Eltax floor standing speakers and it sounds great. The Commodore 64 disk drive was the target of an early virus, one of the few that could actually cause hardware damage. The virus worked by repeatedly causing a disk SEEK beyond the last TRACK, banging the head arm against its stop over and over again, eventually bending it microscopically but enough to put it out of alignment so the drive became useless. so you think i should try another drive? i have like five or so. |
