I had a problem with my Commodore: When I turned it on the screen would come up with the normal colors but no words would appear and it would not respond to the keyboard. I brought it in and got it repaired. My friend now has the same problem with his Commodore. Is this a common problem with a known fix? If so I would like to try and fix it myself (having it repaired would cost more than half of what a new machine would cost.) Does anybody have any idea what the problem might be? If possible could you also send replies directly to me at: cfj@xx.lcs.mit.edu (As I said before I do not get to read this often, I am currently reading it via a friends account.) Thanks.
