Oooooo what are some upgrades you’d recommend?

Huh…?

I see! Thanks! Will definetly look into that solution! I do wonder which of these foods would need it tho. The sugar I use is cubed so I reccon that be fine? The Tea is in bags so they are probably fine, how about Salt? I don’t think salt goes bad yea?

Heh I already got a SyncMaster which I’ve been using as either my third monitor or Retro Computer Monitor of choice, though since its a Flatish Screen and a different format I’ve been looking for something more CRT yknow

Thank you for the advice, since I’m still pretty new to Retro Computing I don’t have a lot of equipment (or knowledge). Though after combing trough some old Forums, it seems the issue can be found with a leaky and somewhat krusty batter,. Will get a replacement part delivered for it next week

Around where I live thats a pretty okay deal for these machines, especially considering I also got the original Commodore PC Keyboard which on its own is worth around 100€ here.

The memory does seem sodered in. Reading trough forums, I did find a potential issue, that being the battery. Seems rather krusty to me, and they are known to cause these types of issues and errors

The filecard seems to be only cinnected via its slot and for some reason 2 cables for the lights at the front of the machine.

Still doesnt boot even after taking everything. Though I did order a new battery which probably will fix it

Don’t tempt me!

One sec ima buy a few and see how many I can fit in there!

Yeah its pretty noisy atleast compared to anything modern~

I could probably fit a coffee machine in there somewhere heh

I hope a full tower is this big

I’ll try it once I manage to get Train Sim to run on it!

Seems to me that you are right with that. The top one reads data in lightning speed. The middle drive doesn’t seem to work saddly and the last one got a fat DVD logo on it so im guessing thats right

Yes

Seems to also work pretty well if I discount Train Simulator having installation issues… but thats probably just the old CD not holding up from when child me handled it…

These tests where done by the seller, hope this uploads in good enough quality to read!

Yes actually, I’ve seen someone do that before!

Thank you all for helping me so much! Truly couldn’t have done any of this without the help and support all of you gave me!

Yeah that was the 2001 Series PET, only from 1977! Must’ve been an interessting experience typing in that original “Mickey Mouse” Keyboard they had

Thank you! I’ll take all of that into consideration when I start working on this thing!

I do have another question regarding cleaning the board itself tho, I’ll be using the Ethernol 99 for it, but can I use both q tips and thoothbrushes for the board and chips or should I avoid something as hard as a thoothbrush?
