... The tricky part I have found is keeping track of which keys are the white keys and which are the black keys when not using the keyboard overlay. I'm going...
I just downloaded the 2600 emulator and got the pc version of synth cart 1.1 o latest. Im having trouble using my pc keyboard as a controller. so far i can use...
You need to tell the emulator that you are using the keypads for the controller instead of a joystick. You should be able to map the keypad buttons to keys on...
hello all, my new EPROM turned up today. in my excitement i pulled out the old one, and put in the new one but forgot to notice which way round the chip goes....
Putting it in the wrong way can sometimes ruin the EPROM. The notch in the EPROM (indicating pin #1) should face the card edge connector. For future...
Yes, i think i killed it. I just get the blue BIOS screen. I put the original chip back in and it works fine. Does this mean i wiped it, or did i totally...
I labeled the white and black keys with bits of colored electrical tape. Then i went one step further and actually removed the keys in the top row that aren't...
I'm not totally sure if this is possible, but an alternative might be to swap out keys between a 64C and C64, which have different colored keyboards. ...

Hi there, I've just bought Synthcart and an old PAL Atari VCS 6-switch model. It has become apparent that the VCS is not firing on all cylinders. I get a very...

Thanks for that Jon. I've just ordered some replacement caps, and I hope I'll get it fixed in a few days when they arrive. If anyone has any more ideas, please...
I've fixed it. It seems that the TIA chip was faulty. I swapped it with another chip from a non-working VCS, and now all is fine and sounding great. Thanks to...
... Awesome! No problem with the misspelling, I'm just glad that you fixed it. Nice work. "Chips" are listed near the end of my debugging list, so it doesn't ...
Is there a recommended way to open an old Commodore 64 cartridge? I have one of the old official C64 carts by Commodore and would like to open it without it...
Remove screw if it has one, then pry it open. They are difficult to open, but they usually don't break. -paul On Tue, Aug 19, 2008 at 9:17 AM, williamgoodden...
