Surprise C64 Donation & Repair

Jan Beta 38 min Published May 2019

About this video

Jan Beta opens up a Commodore 64 donated unseen, finds a SwinSID nano fitted inside and carries out repair work. A pictorial guide to C64 faults is linked.

Good to know: Soldering brings burns and fumes; old solder contains lead.

Why watch it

The donor passed the machine on without looking inside, so its surprises are new to Jan Beta as well. A Future Proofing and Preservation video is linked for later work.
