Hey all.
when I moved last year, my neighbor gave me as a parting gift an old Commodore 64 with a monitor, two disc drives, a printer, tons of discs, three joysticks, and even a dust cover (which, notably, was covered in dust). He said he didn’t even know if it would work, but he didn’t have time to try to figure it out. He asked if I wanted it, and I said sure!
I moved the equipment to a storage area in the garage, and I left it there until earlier this month. Then, I thought, I need to test it out to see if it’s worth salvaging, or if it’s just junk and I would have to get rid of it. Since it came with about 80 floppy disks, including lots of games, I definitely wanted to get it to work.
so I cleared off a space in the garage, hooked it all up, turned it on, and then, NOTHING. I had to research what to do.
