Thanks for supporting Freeze! I hope more people subscribe! :)

Thank you for your review. I love your enthusiasm 😊🙏

It's so fun when you find some deeper materials on personal interests. Hopefully it's a great read. 😁👍

Glad you have it all working! Now we can play some games when I come and visit next time!

rich please its one in the morning

u need a new camera mate picture quality is crap

when do we start building death bots

OMG Moon Patrol ❤❤

I had one of these back in the day, with the riser, monitor, printer, extra internal floppy, external floppy, joystick, and internal modem. I miss that thing. Some of my best memories were in 320x200x16 with a 3-voice symphony.

I’ve found that my C128D has restored my motivation to actually sit down and play some of these titles again - on my Amiga! 😂

Great video, and nice mat for assembly🤡

*Always* test (and if necessary fix) the power rails first. Not days later...

Subbed. Looking forward to seeing the journey on this one. Definitely check out Sayaka’s Digital Attic. She has several c64 troubleshooting vids and may be a good resource for ideas where to look.

Do you have some sort of oscilloscope? Either a used analog unit from the 1980s or one of the modern things off Amazon would help, so long as it gives you a couple megaherz of bandwidth. Most I have seen go to 10MHz. Also, if you haven't done so, Adrian's Digital Basement here on KZbin may be worth checking out for getting some ideas on what to look for. Every so often, he'll do a vintage computer repair, often a C64, and in those he talks about how to troubleshoot.

What is going on with all the men. Lately I see a lot of tech guys trying to be a "woman" or turning into woman. A lot have painted nails. Not even going to watch this... adios

You should get a dead test cart and an inexpensive oscilloscope. Dead test will allow you to do a test without the ROMs (in case those are bad) and will also let you know if you have one more more bad DRAM chips (or a memory related LS logic chip). Oscilloscope will let you check the reset pin on the CPU and check data and address lines for correct voltages. Black screen with a white line means you're generating a good clock signal. Clock circuitry and VicII are probably good. PLA tested and good. Feel the chips to see if any are getting very hot...Esp those DRAM chips with the red dots. Your kernel ROM has a red dot, too. Looked like the LS logic chip next to the top row of DRAM to the right of the resistor pack has a red dot, too.

Missed seeing you do the soldering. Great job

Ha ha! I was one of the folks yelling at the screen “the front one! The front one!” But, great job! very cool. Enjoyed the vid!

Very well done! Enjoy your game.

we have adam savage at home

Enjoyed

Thanks for the Kenbak insights except unlike you I managed to get it right from the start maybe because I payed attention to the directions? I hope your loved ones graduation wasn't erased by the ProHamas protestors. Nice nail polish. Really pretty.

No ESD wristband? Good video though👍

Great recap of the show!

Found the Gotek in our spare bedroom. Looks like you forgot to pack it! Will be mailing soon. Great video.

A lot of stuff for you enjoy. OK, Wisneski.

Hey! That is me at 4:03 !! Thank you for visiting us!!! I didn't see that radio museum! I had no idea that was around there in the buildings. Also, I'm sad that I didn't know about that Arcade place that everyone went at night, will try to ask around if there is a next time.

Nice recap!

Nice report! Pity there was no official stream this year.

You _just_ missed my table, it's right in the corner at 4:24! lol VCF East was great this year!

There’s a lot of knockoffs on that table #brazil 😂

I think its the nails that got me to sub 👍🏻

I panicked and went straight for youtube and did read about the MSBfirst fix. but then again it led me to your awesome channel. you earned a sub today. I am a professional circuit board designer let me know if you ever want some help in that regard. Cheers !

Super informative!

show us some of the retro computers! nice 8 track units

I always dip plungers in isopropyl and gently give them 3 wipes on a blank piece of paper... then clean contacts on board with isopropyl and q tips gently.. always works like a charm.. especially the plungers:)

I broke it but I fixed it! ❤

Plugging and unplugging from the joystick port is fine, until it isn't. I prefer to cycle the machine rather than run the risk of replacing CIA chips.

This is spooo nice :)

Great video. Enjoyed your review.

I love the excitement and the twinning! Hello world ❤

Out door spa?! Faaaannnccyy! ❤

My best friend in High School in the mid 80's got a Pet. His dad paid $3k for it and thought he got a bargain. It was never used as they couldn't get it to so much as it had almost no software and getting anything he wanted was impossible. No games, just business programs. I think it got put away withing a couple months. His dad was very wealthy and in the Lebanese Mafia so money was no object. Even had a shop which was a front. Why they didn't buy a new computer, who knows. A new one would have been $4k back then. Mine cost $3500, equivalent to a 286 AT.

Great job. Too bad you got no display.

The Sony cassette deck wil probably need new belts and you should also clean the record/playback switches. The volume pots don't work because they are strictly for RECORD level adjustment.

Today ? why the 1978 vision ?

I can't wait to see more of these! This looks like it's going to be a fun project!!

It is the awful black nail polish problem. 🤮

3:10 It looks like a record/playback switch problem... And by 4:00 The problem may be gone. Ah, too bad. You will have to do some serious work to get this SONY to come back to life. When it was released around 1972, it was a premium deck, with the ferrite and ferrite heads. Later... I can't decide whether you are playing dumb, whatever... AFC stands for Automatic Frequency Control. Unlike AGC, which every tuner has, AFC circuits apply to FM only, and are a correlation circuit that locks in on the cleanest phase differential out of the detector, and holds that position, allowing the radio to become mistuned without affecting performance. Best practice is to tune the signal with AFC off, and then switch it on. General observations on these low-price receiver 8-track sets? They may only offer a few watts, but with efficient speakers, all of these receivers should provide more than adequate volume levels. That YORX unit looks to be a closet prestige unit, and if I had it, I'd be tempted to use it as a front end, with the loudspeaker outputs feeding directly into a high power amplifier. Don't worry about what you may perceive to be an impedance mismatch. There is never a problem going from low to high impedances, the opposite is not true. Good luck.
