C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
So... I have my MiSTer all configured. C16 and PET work. C64 just gets me a black screen. Help?

Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
I would first think of a corrupted file.
Have you tried to rewrite the core or/and the rom on your SD card?

Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
I have at least 128M installed. This is across several complete powerdowns of the device as I rewrite the card. I have totally wiped the card and I have recopied all the files several times.
I have not made a ROM file --- I thought it was an optional step.

Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
How about if you use the built-in ROM?
You can select Kernal: Standard C64, C64GS, or Loadable C64 ROM through the OSD.

To the point, the OSD doesn't come up. Blank screen.

Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
it's a little surprising this story
here is my configuration that works for me!
Replace with your files

It is better to transfer by ftp than by sharing smb

Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
Yeah, I've been having some odd problems with smb every now and then. Copying stalling and files that refuse to delete.
Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
really? Can you post a config with a text thing? I'd really rather not download random .7z things.
Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
So... I manged to determine that I had the RAM expansion plugged into the wrong header. Problem solved.
Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
To Add Detail Here... I think the PET (and possibly the C16) don't require the RAM expansion. I'm still reading source, for various reasons, but I suppose the C16 and PET can use the FPGA internal RAM rather than the expansion?
Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
Does the C64 core require the RAM expansion? I'm trying to run it while I wait for my 128MB RAM to get here. Also, are the kernel, basic, and disk ROM files required, and if so, where do I put them?

See here on the Wiki for cores that use SDRAM:

Re: C16 and PET work: C64 Black screen.
Just a follow up to this: I received my 128MB SDRAM module this weekend - plugged it in, and the C64 core came up without any changes by me! So it seems that the C64 core requires SOME SDRAM to run. Same for MSX core.
