December #17 - Preserving my C64 demos from 1987 - Commodore advent calendar 2021
December #17 - Commodore Advent calendar Preserving my old C64 demo floppies from 1987 to modern media. Includes how to copy files from an actual floppy disk to a SD memory card.
PART 3: In this part I do the recapping of the other motherboard, then I replace some sockets on the faulty board, and start re-assembling the good machine. A lifted trace has to be repaired. Also I install a new battery module.
I got two Commodore Amiga 2000 machines from my friend KOJRO, check out his channel linked below. The state of the machines were unknown. They both had been stored away for at least 20 years.
This is a multi part restoration project. In the first part I investigated the state of the machines, did the cleaning, initial testing, and then some recapping of the motherboards.

In this video I build and test a C64 saver device. The C64 saver made by Bwack will save your precious Commodore 64 from damage in case of over-voltage from the power supply.

CELEBRATING 1000 SUBSCRIBERS! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
In this video I do a repair on an old Atari 2600 games console from around 1981. This is the original 6-switch console. I was dead on arrival. Some cleaning and repairs got life into it. I also do a composite video modification and replace the electrolyte capacitors.
However, the video-output is only black and white, and I suspect it is because it is a NTSC system, while I have PAL cartridges. It might be an issue with the TIA chip also. If anyone knows, please comment below.
I used the following recipy for the composite mod:

I took a new look at the WiC 64 module for the C64 to see if anything had changed.
I also made a modified WiC64 kernal rom for the C64 C.
The WiC64 is a module for the C64, VIC20 and C128 user port that makes it possible to connect the old 8-bit computers to the internet via WiFi.
I made a video about this last year, but now I wanted to see what was new with the solution.
Check out the old video: https://youtu.be/HL1O0eFA-IA
This is much more than just using BBS's. There are actual online services that can be used, and you can load games and demos directly from the internet.
Included is a kind of internet portal that has a lot of features and also has the possibility to use Google Maps and even Street View on the C64.

I recently got an Amiga 1000 as a donation. Now I finally took it out of the box and started the restoration work on it. Oh boy, it was dirty inside.
Checking the status of the machine, cleaning the whole machine inside and out. Replacing a RIFA-cap, servicing the floppy drive.
This is part 1 of 2.

I denne videoen har jeg funnet fra min gamle Amiga 500 som er i deler. Jeg viser hvordan jeg fikser den, renser diskettstasjonen som ikke virker og fikser et problem med power-lyset.

In this video I got a C128 with some character color issues. Is it a fault with the color ram, or is it something else. I try different things, but no success so far!
