Problem with Vic

Post by saver71 »

Hello everyone. I have a problem with a vic 20 just purchased. After switching on (everything was ok) I loaded some program, then I switched off. When I switched back no longer worked. I state that I am using a power of a Commodore 64 and an AV cable. The LED light is very weak and the fuse is ok. You know what could be causing this? Thanks in advance.

A bad connection between power plug/vic-20? Try cleaning it.

A bad power supply? Try another power supply.

Thank you for your replies. The Vic now works again perfectly, I do not understand what was the problem, the LED lights up normally and the machine does not give more problems. I hope that continue. Thanks again.
