It is a new-style C64. I'm located in Toronto in the west end in the St.Clair & Bathurst area. RETRO Innovations wrote:

Sometimes, games carts will allow the machine to boot. if so, we can rule out some components.Hi,The light on the C64 is is on yes and the red light on the uIEC/SD is on as well?Is this a breadbox 64 or new-style? Where are you located?I might just try to get you another unit from Toronto, instead of trying to repair that unit.jimThanks Jim RETRO Innovations wrote:On 12/5/2011 9:19 PM, mayfly@xxxxxxxxxxxx wrote:Hi, I tried OPEN1,8,15,"CD//SOMEDIR/:SOMEGAME.D64":CLOSE1 but I didn't get a chance to try @$ yet.When I started up my C64 today I got a blank screen and a buzzing sound? After restarting a few times and removing the uIEC/SD card it still hasn't gone away?Is the light on the C64 present when powered up? I've never heard of the uIEC damaging a machine.
