You have to replace one of the custom chip. If my memory is right I
think it's the Denise chip. Actually the only difference is the
revision of the chip. I have done that last year so I will check in
my system tonight and I will give you the info tomorrow.

| It's the Denise chip. Commodore part number 8362R8.
The last digit is the revision of the chip, you need a revision higher
than 6 but to be on the safe side mine works ok and it's a rev 8 so I
would try to get a rev 8 minimum.

| What's the approximate cost of a Denise chip? I've never really felt
the lack of halfbrite mode, but now some software that takes advantage
of it is starting to show up in the stores.

I bought my chip at a place call "SYSTEM 5" in bedford MA. I paid
around $50.00 for it.
There is an advertisement in the last transactor (OCT 89) on page 69
for a place call "The gravepine Group Inc" and they ask 56.95 for
Denise. Their phone numbers are: 800-292-7445 or 914-354-4448.

| re .5:
One of the chip booths that is a regular at the Computer flea markets
here in MA had the Denise chip listed at $49 last weekend.
I was tempted, but couldn't come up with a justification of why I
needed it. I've seen the half-brite hill demo on a 2000, but somehow
that demo wasn't inspiring enough to make me want to rush out and get
a new Denise. Is there a particular application that guided your
decision?
thanks,
dennis
