* <strike>NMI is stuck low. Pushing RESTORE does nothing.</strike>
* [http://www.zimmers.net/cbmpics/cbm/c64/vic-ii.txt This shows the VIC-II taking over a bus]
* NMI high, pulled low for a short burst when restore key pushed. Seems like the address lines respond by trying to read the vector addresses.
* Investigate HIMEM!

* Diagnostic guide RAM Check...
* <strike>Replace CIA and try typing poke commands again...</strike>
* Remove more chips...

* _CS on the ROMs: The BASIC-ROM (901226-01) is not addressed in idle mode, but access can be produced simply by pressing the RETURN key
* The duty cycle of _CAS must be higher than that of _RAS for the DRAM to work.

  Signal where?  Frequency duty cycle 
  PHI0 CPU Pin 1 985 KHz 50%
