It seems to have died...

You may want to open it up and make sure all the chips are seated properly. In addition to that I have seen mine, over time, have a couple of boards that are connected directly to each other seperate. Particularly, there is one set, as you look from the front, on the right side that runs vertical to you and connects to a board that is perpendicular to it. Make sure they are pushed together tightly.

After wanting a Commodore 64 SX for such a long time, a kind man finally gave me one. (it was the victim of a garage-clean out. I got it back home and it worked fine for a while. later that night I was writing basic programs and this strange color washed over it's little screen then it went blank. Cycling power did not restore any picture. I left it unplugged overnight, (thinking the problem may have been heat related) but it's still in the same state this morning. Any one have any knowledge? Is it really dead? Is there anything I can do?
