Hallo Adric22, In the beginning I was a bit sceptic because "we have VICE so why another Basic interpreter?". But then I realised that this could be for example a nice tool for children who want to learn to program. Let's be honest, what programming language is easy to learn nowadays? My o...

Two, one with case, one without. I only found out later that it it was a RS-232 interface as well. FYI: it only contains a level converter. So the idea of using a MAX232 is good enough.

Listed below are torrents to various Commodore magazine issues I have found on the internet! The best thing I like about the German magazine 64er is that all the software that was listed, also was available on floppy and much better, on CDROM nowadays. How about the software listed in these magazin...

... Then use opencbm [2] under your OS of choice to write the .prg to a floppy, and carry it over to the VIC. As OpenCBM doesn't work well for some people, another option is to boot to DOS using a floppy drive. Don't know if you can boot DOS using an USB stick. Once in DOS, you can copy your PRGs u...

Defragmentation can be done in a very simple way by copying the disk file by file to a newly formatted disk. Can be done by using Commodore's own Uni-copy (don't know the exact name) program found on various demo disks.
Using a speed loader will speed up the process of course.

hi there it sounds like it could be either the right 6522 or the 74ls06 on the vic 20 either that or you have a problem with the logic pcb in the 1541 also check your cable try another one if you have one I second this with the addition that it is more likely that you have to replace the 7406 and/o...

Worse, who ever inserted the photo didn't put much effort in it and lent it from a German site.

Hmmm, it seems I have to work again to increase my rank :) Hallo allemaal, Please have a look at the Dutch Wikipedia page of the VIC-20: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIC-20 I have my doubts about the photo. IMHO it is a C64: the dark colour of the case and the very dark clour of the function keys. R...

AFAIK the motherboard does not have its own serial number. At least I never noticed it.

What do other PET owners use, i.e., is there a similar uIEC/SD device out there that can be interfaced for easy transfer of binaries between PC and PET? http://www.baltissen.org/newhtm/cbmhd.htm In my case I use a Compaq ??? with P3/600 MHz with Win98SE as OS. CBM-HD is run under the real DOS mode....

What is the difference between doing a Soft Reset (SYS 64802) and a Hard Reset? In case of the VIC-20 under normal circumstances, hardly any. But imagine you have a 6522 connected to the expansion port. As the VIC-20 doesn't know of it existance, it won't (re)set its registers/ports after any type ...

No kidding, I visit Denial regurlary but today I saw your request for the first time. Must have missed it in one or another way. Please PM me, maybe we can work things out. Don't need to be paid for it :)

But I could not figure out how to get it out on the 64 On the inside of the case is a little plastic ring, 3 mm high. Pull it of. Then push firmly on the LED from the outside. Should be doable with a finger otherwise use a little piece of wood. Then push the black LED holder out by pushing from the...

Then out of curiousity: why don't you use StarCommander?
