I think you may have a VIC-20CR, the newer one with a 3 or 5-pin DIN connector providing both 9VAC~ and 5VDC=. It draws equal power as the contemporary C64 does, so it is not an issue here. We're speaking the first generation VIC-20 with its two-prong connector, which only gets 9VAC~ input. You're ...

Woops... The c64 PSU can only deliver 1A of 9V (right?) so maybe I was right anyway.... it's not enough! ;) /Anders I swap my C-64 PSU between my C-64 and my VIC-20 just fine. I don't think that would be a problem. I think the problem is wether or not you are getting good clean AC to the PSU. I jus...

Psst.. the latest version is WinVICE 1.15 with improved noise emulation. I own two 1541-II:s, of which one doesn't seem to make it past POST, but by switching its PSU (external unlike the original 1541) I get it to work, so something seems to have gone wrong in the power supply. It is also virtuall...

Re: .d64 -> .tap

I am almost 100% certain that Tank vs. Ufo is found on the Canadian Tire tape, which schema (leif) has a link to somewhere on this forum. just to save you the trouble of typing it in again chris the user manual has a very primitive and cool version of the game. I'm typing! I'm typing! :lol: Christo...

While giving my VIC-20 it's semi-annual checkup, I found a blank cartridge in my bin of Commodore stuff. It's dark brown, like a utility cartridge, but looks like it never had a label on it. I plugged it into the VIC and nothing happened when I turned on the computer. I cleaned the contacts with a p...

There are two in the back of my manual they are Tank-versus-UFO and Killer Comet will look into scanning them if you still can not find your manual.The best format to seve them in is .tap files because these can easily be converted to real tapes. I have about a dozen or so books here with loads of ...

If anyone else has found bugs, please post them here and we can then submit them to the VICE team and who knows, we may one day end up with a 100% emulator! :) we're pretty close now I think I've been a VICE user for a long time, and I do think the newest ver...
