Re: Where to buy replacement chips?

Does the SID fail often? What about the CPU? Do these need heat sinks today?

Where to buy replacement chips?

Is there anywhere that stocks chips for the C64, like the SID, Vic-II, CPU...etc...?

Re: directly connecting C64 to PC

Thanks. I'm going ahead with the purchase of the Pi1541, it looks like it can solve a lot of my problems.

Re: directly connecting C64 to PC

I do have an old PC in the attic and I'm pretty sure it does have a parallel port, but I haven't used it in ages. I'll bring it down and try to fire it up.

Re: directly connecting C64 to PC

Thanks! I no longer have a PC with that type of port. I have one with RS232 and of course USB

Re: directly connecting C64 to PC

Also this seems like a nice solution, although not 100% what I'm looking for. Anyone know anything about these 2 devices?
