This reminds me of my Vic 20's that I still use. The vic also has a problem with case discolouring. I repaired at least three Vic's, and on the Vic 20 when the video chip goes its usually a sign that your power brick is starting to fail. It may be sending too much power into your commodore. You may need to replace the Vic II chip in your old c64 I'd get rid of the old power brick and get a newer one to replace it. As well I think you will need to put in a new fuse with the same amps or more.
Respond to this video... The C64C had a completely new motherboard, and they used all new processes to make the thing. Runs a lower voltage to the earlier model, different memory chips, 9v instead of 12v...... The motherboard is 1/3 the size if i recall.
you know i thought about buying one of these card-readers they are selling, but they are about 150$ !!! thats some money. how would one start to build such device?

Cool video. Really dig your (Swedish?) accent. It's cool that so many people around the world knows about these things.
