so am I to understand that if the power is ok, and the
video chip/circuit is ok, you still won't get anything
on the monitor (not even a flicker) due to a problem
somewhere else on the board?
Assuming there's a definite answer to that, I'd like
to throw this one at ya Roy: everything *works* to the
point where there is a video output (bright screen
w/border) but no text at all, what normally would be
displayed at power up.
Don't mean to take attention away from your problem
Bill. Just trying myself to get a better understanding
of this stuff.

I was just able to pick up 2 Commodore 64 units.
One has monitor (1701) and
disk drive (1541) and works fine. The other
Commodore (computer portion
only) has the Power light come on, but that's about
it. It does not even
cause the monitor screen to be active. My question
is, is there possibly a
simple solution as to why the C64 is not working? I
have not opened it up
yet, and I'm not a real "techie", but I could do
some simple internal checks
if I knew what to look for. Thanks for any help
anyone may be able to give
me.
