   After many years I decided to pull my c64 out of the closet and see if it   
   would still work. All that was required was to open it up and re-seat some   
   of the chips to get it working again, surprisingly the C2N still loads the   
   only tape game that I have.. 'Impossible Mission'.   
      
   Unfortunately the drive no longer works and I am asking for some help to get   
   it working again.   
      
   I recently scored some rockwell 6522 and 6502 chips off ebay and have   
   performed the following steps to try and get it up and running. In addition   
   I used the opportunity to install some sockets to make chip replacement easy   
   in future.   
      
   The original symptoms were as follows   
   * Both lights staying on upon power up and drive motor keeps spinning.   
      
   After replacing the original MOS 6502 MPU.   
   * Drive light flashes once every 2 seconds   
      
   Swapped the 6522 chips with the rockwell ones, problem is still there. I   
   also installed sockets for the logic chips and replaced them but the problem   
   is still there.   
      
   I am running out of options, the only chip I haven't replaced is the SRAM   
   chip which I am having trouble finding.   
      
   Will replacing the SRAM chip fix the problem ?
