Known Issues
- Catastrophic Failure of Original Power Supply
- The voltage regulator on the 5V DC output fails routinely, producing a large voltage spike that fries the chips on the C64's mainboard.[1]
- Solution: Only use a modern aftermarket power supply at all costs (the original power brick is virtually impossible to repair on account of Commodore filling the housing with epoxy)
- Solution: If using an original power supply then an over-volt protector, such as a Commodore Saver from Ray Carlson, should be used.
