Hello Gents (&Ladies)

I've been meaning to post this request for ages.

I'm hunting down the following items to get my old C64 Back up & running.

1) Old style (Breadbin) Mobo for C64.............Found
2) Datasette unit any C= type.
3) Original C64 PSU....................................Found

If anyone has any of the above & would like to part with them please let me know.

Many Thanks
TC :wink:

Re: C64 Original Type Mobo & Datasette

Hey Corfiot,

I have plenty of datasettes and could hook you up with one. I will say however that they are all in need of a little retr0brite/clean.

I think I also have an abundance of power supplies but I will check before I go promising.

In terms of the main boards, I am looking out for them myself so if you have broken mainboard that you will be replacing, ill take it off your hands.

Hope this helps

@gazuk

Thanks for the datasette offer, If you've got a PSU too I would be over the moon.
Let me know what you want for them..

The current Mobo works fine except that it's mute. It's probably a faulty SID chip but thought I would play safe & try & get a working Mobo just in case it's something else.

If I can get a replacement working Mobo you are more than welcome to the old mute board.

Best Regards

Cheers Gazuk

Just waiting to see If I can get hold of a Mobo / SID , as without it I'm not sure if it's worth restoring the 64 without sound :(

What cost would you accept for the Datasette / PSU inc P&P

Many thanks again for your kind offer.

TC :)

Hey Corfiot,

No charge - just cover the postage and its a deal. I havent had chance yet to look for a PSU but either way none of this stuff is going anywhere soon so just drop me a line if and when.

:)

Re: C64 Original Type Mobo & Datasette

@ TheCorfiot - I have an original C64 spare that you can have, i think i even have an original psu for it also (just need to dig it out of the loft). I cannot guarantee that it works but if you`re interested i`ll fire it up and test... Just cover the postage mate and i`ll send it royal mail.

cheers,

@Brataccas

Thank you very much for the knid offer my friend, I've just picked up r0jaws c64 (see other thread) & I'm waiting for it to arrive before I update this thread.
Hopefully I should be sorted.....

Might be interested in a C128 though :wink:

TC :LOL:

/TC runs away while wifey chases him around the room with a broom due to above C128 comment.
 
Re: C64 Original Datasette

@all

Have updated original Post (#1)

R0jaws kindly sold me his C64 at a great price, It looks great (cleaned up really well) and works perfectly. Also able to confirm that the SID is at fault on my original C64.
So....PSU & Mobo no longer needed.

Have PM'd gazuk regarding the datasette.

Thanks all
TC :mrgreen:
 
Re: C64 Original Datasette

We going to get piccies at all?

P that's brilliant mate :LOL:

I've had so much on my mind recently but that's no real excuse, I should have taken piccies when I cleaned her up & tested.... Testing meaning spending all afternoon playing Cavelon. :wink:

OK I'll set her up with the ole 1541 & get some pix done.

Would sir like some portraits, or closeups... External or Internal shots :twisted:

Speak soon.
TC :mrgreen:

Re: C64 Original Datasette

By "original", do you mean the original first version "square" Datasette, or the later "rounded" one? I have examples of both here. If you want a pic of the "square" one, let me know.

I'm just curious.
 
Re: C64 Original Datasette

@Merlin

Thank you for the interest, Sorry I didn't explain myself clearly.
By "original" I just mean a Commodore branded unit as opposed to those 3rd party nasties that came out later.

Round or square is not a problem, however If you have a piccy to hand of both examples it would be nice to see, tbh I can't remember the square ones...

Cheers

TC :mrgreen:
 
Re: C64 Original Datasette

@ TC

The "square" one was a Commodore branded unit; I'll take a picture of it tonight for you.

Edit: found a decent picture.
