From here, it is assumed that you will already have opened the Ultimate menu.
- Hit
F1, select 'power and reset' → 'Power OFF' to shut down the C64 with the keyboard instead of holding down the power button for 4 seconds. - Hit
C= + Jto quickly swap joystick ports around (port 1 ⇔ port 2) without unplugging your joystick. - Did you change your screen mode to a mode that your monitor can't handle? Turn off your device and hold
C= + Nto start in NTSC mode, orC= + Pto start in PAL mode. - You can navigate the Ultimate menu by using the
WASDkeys, but a joystick works too! - To get past the display bug in selecting an Authentication Method within the WiFi Network Setup, you will need to change the Color Scheme to “Commodore 1” within the User Interface section.
While in Basic
- Load first program on tape:
Shift + RUN/STOP - Soft reset without clearing the memory:
RUN/STOP + RESTORE
GEOS
To change input device, C= + I will open the input device selector. Use cursor keys to choose.
