Hello. I have a C64 that may have a bad CIA chip, but I want to be sure first before I go through the work of replacing it. Maybe someone on the list can give some trouble shooting tips to narrow the problem down. Okay, the problem is when I try to do any file loading, I will get the message "searching for (name of file)" and thats it. No drive access at all. The drive light does not come on. Even a "@" command from the wedge to get the DOS version after I do a RESET will do nothing. However, if I turn the drive off, the screen prints "deive not present" and a blinking cursor appears. The disk drive has been successfully tested on a C128 without a problem, so I know it is the C64. Help Anyone? (Marko?) Henry - This message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing list.
