Peter KreftingWith a proper joystick attached it behaves as it should. So now I can play the 2024 Plus/4 port of Giana Sisters on my #Commmodore16. Nice!
*That* looks weird. I connected a USB gamepad through a mouSTer *and* a C64-joyport adapter I got with the machines, and all gamepad directions also trigger a set of keypresses that I don't see with a regular joystick..
I found a seller of 4464s on eBay in a France and ordered two. I popped one of the ones that came from China and put one in, and now the #Fixteen works! So now I have two "Minus 4"s!
That means I have a spare 4464 in case one of the others break down later.
#PCBWay delivers.
But I need something to pull the TED out without destroying it. It's not as simple as it looks in all those videos the repair guys keep publishing :-) So far all I've manged to do is to make scratch marks...
Apparently it's just the power switch that's bad. (And the fuse needs to be replaced of course).
It's nice to have colleagues who know their way around hardware.
Oh, this is nasty! Look at that thing where the fuse is supposed to be...
