Video after new build

[aircraftmech123@gmail.com]

Are you sure that your TV will handle video from a C64?  This could be an issue with the TV's composite not syncing.

I tried a good known monitor and it detects signal but wont even display. I have used a c64 with both. I checked voltages again with all chips installed-checked good. i have swapped chips to no avail. Does the crystal need to be grounded? I have it installed as the illustrations show, but never saw it grounded.
