Commodore 64 trouble. Please help!
Posted: Tue Jul 18, 2017 9:07 pm
I bought a C=64 yesterday, and when I turn it on, it works fine for about 20 minutes, but after that it always shuts down. Blank screen, no response. When I switch it off and on, it works for a few seconds and then shuts down again. When I let it rest for a while (a few hours), it works, but again shuts down after 20 minutes. I assume something is overheating?
The only other thing I've noticed is that the background noise -- that soft "whirring" that sounds a bit like a small electric fan or motor -- is a bit loud on this machine. Could that be related?
Any thoughts would be tremendously appreciated. Thanks!!
