c64 commodore 64
Well, I just got my new replacement power supply for my C64 today... Plugged it in and it was rock solid. Had the thing running for about three hours.. then. gone. Screwed up characters on the screen.. colors everywhere. Tried a buddys supply and no go. Tried replacing the VIC-2.. nothing. Looks like it's really fried this time. Probably from being over-voltaged for god knows how long by the previous supply.
So.. there goes my jiffy-dos enabled c64. Anyone know someone reputable that does C64 repairs? If not, I guess I'm in the market for a new machine.
Sucks.
