Quick question about the TheC64 mini I just bought Jul 3, 2022 20:06:17 GMT

Hello everyone,

Can anyone answer this?

I have just bought a new The C64 mini from Amazon. It was advertised as having the PEGI 7 logo on the front of the box which, as I understand, means it will work at PAL speed - I am in the UK. The box I received has E 10 on the the front, model RGL001 and the unit itself has not got the silver sticker on the bottom of it. I am thinkning this might be a North American Version.

I would rather not have to return it so wondered if it would the carousell games and any more that I might add to the carousell would run at the PAL speeds I am accustomed to.

Any help appreciated,
Steve

There was recently a thread about this.

thec64community.online/thread/1264/new-version-mini-running-fast

And I'm probably mistaken but didn't somebody come up with a solution later in another thread to get the mini to switch modes? I'm used to ntsc speeds so I haven't really paid attention to if a solution was found.

You should be able to change your NTSC Mini into a PAL Mini with PCUAE, via the "PCUAE Video Output Menu" and then choose "Boot Carousel Mode and into 50Hz PAL Video Output"

spannernick will be able to explain it better.

andreasc64: Hello everyone! I am new to this forum. When i was a chlid, I played C64 all day and. I also wrote many BASIC programs. And here is my quesition: Did you play "Apollo 18: Mission to the Moon" ? Do you know how Accolade did the digitalized speech ? Nov 1, 2024 13:01:44 GMT

francec77: Scusate se son un pò ignorante ma quando cerco di cambiare carosello cliccando fireA e botton4 il mini entra in modalità classica con schermata blu in basic... non si vedono le schermate per scegliere i caroselli ma posso solo vedere le cartelle Jul 28, 2024 4:10:33 GMT

alucard2: thank you for your reply.
I don't understand why PCUAE manager has extra disk if you can't change the disk via the carousel. Jul 5, 2024 11:50:12 GMT
