|    My C-128 is throwing random chars    |
|    28 Jun 20 12:34:03    |
      From: paul.s.macmillan@gmail.com              Recently my C-128 has started acting very oddly, it throws random characters       as if I were typing them but I'm not. Sometimes it acts like I press keys even       when my fingers aren't on the keyboard, and sometimes it will add random keys       among the actual        keys I am typing.              OK, this is old hardware, and things happen... but it was flawless until now.       What would be a fix for this -- does this sound like something "recapping"       would address? I am pretty clueless when it comes to hardware issues.              Is there a diagnostic image (in D64 or D71 format for an SD2IEC) out there       that might help?              Thanks.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
