What's wrong with it? If it doesn't do anything at all, it's most
likely the power supply, they overheat and burn out easily.
Fortunately, these aren't that hard to construct/find replacements for.
Is it a disk drive related issue? Those 1541 drives go out of alignment
if you look at them funny. I've also heard of the video chips failing,
although I have never seen it happen. Fortunately, there were millions
of C64's sold, so they turn up very frequently. If it's a problem with
the computer itself, it may be simpler to get another one off ebay,
especially if you don't have spare parts or good experience fixing
something like this.
