   If there are no other solution I recommend Adrian's Digital Basement on   
   Youtube. He appears to be a specialist when it comes to the C64 - and I   
   remember he had to deal with a lot of "black screeners" and always found   
   the culprit.

   Neither did I. A friend had and I was envious. Probably because of the   
   shape of the shell, as we usually booted into C64 mode and did things a   
   C64 can do itself.
