Surprise C64 Donation & Repair

Dean aka https://www.twitter.com/game_whisperer donated a special Commodore 64 to me without even looking inside (something he usually would do--cf. his Twitter). The honor was upon me to explore the surprises inside and also do some repair work.

CORRECTION: the device I‘m referring to as an ARMSID is actually a SwinSID nano. No idea why I confused the two. Sorry about that!

Here's the Future Proofing and Preservation video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x8UYDDSKLw

*** Here's some handy resources I refer to when troubleshooting and repairing C64s:

The Pictorial C64 Fault Guide is here: http://derbian.webs.com/c64diag/

Ray Carlsen's troubleshooting and repair guides are here: http://personalpages.tds.net/~rcarlsen/cbm.html

You can get the .bin files for various C64 diagnostics cartridges from World of Jani (in case you want to make your own or try in an emulator): http://blog.worldofjani.com/?p=164

Here's the GitHub with Sven's diagnostics harness: https://github.com/svenpetersen1965/C64-Diagnostic-Rev.-586220-Harness
