Well I finally figured it out. The socket for the SID must be worn out. I simply inserted another socket into the socket(which has bigger pins than the SID of course) and put the SID in that. Everything works perfectly fine now. And I just bought a new C64 too.. Oh, well!

That's a lot guys! Most input I've gotten in awhile! I'll give these a try and get back you!

Also, quite often you can fix by simply pulling and reinserting the chips.

Seems like it is more likely to be a problem with the 'CIA' chip that reads keyboard input, or with the keyboard itself rather than the SID chip?

Interesting. I've already upgraded the Cynthcart ROM. Replaced my SID.
I have a MSSIAH cart so I may try switching to that. Want to put an LCD on my C64 for that though.

There was a bug when holding 3 or more keys at once:

but that should be fixed in the latest version? or you could try building a MIDI to cynthcart interface:

Gonna top this and see if I can get help. I replaced my SID and my keyboard works perfectly.
Does anyone know what is going on here?

Yes it works fine otherwise. And to clear this up the glitch goes away after key mashing for about 2 minutes. Then it works perfectly fine.

No the shift key is not latched lol

Does the keyboard all work when Cynthcart is not being used?

Is the Shift Lock key latched down?

Oh, it still happens. I just got lucky a couple times. I updated the ROM and it still does it. What's wrong with my computer???

Actually. Taking the cart out fixed it. No idea how that makes sense but it works.

There is not. But when there is it makes it worse. Can't remember how exactly right now.
I'm playing with it right now and I took the cart out while running and it seems to be working now. I can't believe that this would be any sort of permanent fix though.

Is there anything plugged into the joystick ports?
They can interfere with the keyboard sometimes.

I never had a problem like this but I suppose it might also be a keyboard issue... maybe try cleaning it inside and check the keyboard contacts?

Good call. Will do.
