MrAtari2600 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Alright i recieved a cord in mail that hooks the back of my C64 to my comodore 1902 monitor. I only currently own a vic 20 power adaptor and i am unable to know if they are compatible with each other or not. I was told they were but i want to double check.. i own 2 i got one for free. so i hookedup one of them plugged it in the power light comes on, im like good to go so far and then plug the RCA jacks into the monitor... The monitor recieves no image... so i tried in on all the tvs around the house and i got the same result Nothing happening... Am i hooking something up wrong? My Commodore 64 in a lame text way so i can explain where cords are plugged in If there is any miscommunication or you dont understand something please say so ill attempt to reword and help it a bit. _______________hookup 1, hookup 2, RCA jack _______________________ USED THIS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% | << power |%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% | |%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% | |%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/122254-dumb-question-but-commodore-64-how-i-hook-up/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 A C64 power supply will work on the later Vic20 models. IIRC a Vic20 power supply doesn't have enough juice to power a C64.
