Recently my C-128 has started acting very oddly, it throws random characters as if I were typing them but I'm not. Sometimes it acts like I press keys even when my fingers aren't on the keyboard, and sometimes it will add random keys among the actual
keys I am typing.
OK, this is old hardware, and things happen... but it was flawless until now. What would be a fix for this -- does this sound like something "recapping" would address? I am pretty clueless when it comes to hardware issues.
Is there a diagnostic image (in D64 or D71 format for an SD2IEC) out there that might help?
