The caps you can get anywhere. The dodgy looking ones are 0.1um Farad rated at 25V. I'll buy 10 and replace them. Oddly, it produces sound, albeit very, very, very quietly. Once the lockdown lifts, I will get the other C64's from my parents garage and test them. I know one doesn't start (black screen), and one only has 29 bytes RAM free. It's really weird. It WORKS, but instead of 38911 bytes, it says 29 bytes free. Type a couple of lines of BASIC code and you run out of RAM. ....
