Hi all, i have been searching though old posts trying to find an answer to my current problem with my recently aquired Atari 800. It appears i have found 1/2 the solution but need a little bit more help.
The issue is, the keyboard does not respond (only the break key works nothing else). I have checked the keyboard itself and tested with a multimeter, all tracks and keys appear fine. Keyboard connector is fine (continuity tested).
Searching on here I was directed to the CD4051 chips and then if not those the POKEY. My question is can I use the chips and pokey from another Atari machine, if so which would work OK or all they all OK? I have a couple of dead 2600's and a dead XEGS and 65XE knocking around but just wanted to check the compatibility before I start. If not where would I get these from in the Uk is there a supplier anyone can recommend?
Thanks for the help, and apologies that the first post is a question.
Thanks
Paul
