    Josh, once you removed those CIA chips your name was placed on the bad boy register. That&apos;s almost as bad as releasing the magic smoke. Thanks again for the fun video. You may want to invest in a chip puller.

    The biggest problem we have with buying old computers like this &nbsp;is that we have no real way of knowing how many owners are in it&apos;s history. Thus, we don&apos;t have any way of knowing who has done what to them. &nbsp;But when we get them fully restored and working, &nbsp;it&apos;s best that we keep them forever and never sell them or give them away.

    Awesome video Josh! I think even if that were a brand new C64 it might not work out of box. Time is real. Capacitors and boards experience oxidization and corrosion. I have seen a brand new NES completely corroded, never used. Time is just a factor. Awesome pick up and awesome video!

    Crossing my fingers you can fix it Josh!

    There were 7 flashes from the dead test. That indicates a problem with ram. The flash code chart shows for 7 flashes is U9 or U10 depending on the revision of your C64 board.
