Installation in C64 Reloaded with slim case - Comos - 2023-12-27 Hello, based on the installation notes, there's mentioned the compatability with C64R, however I guess only when breadbin case is used. On my C64R I have replaced the ZIF sockets with lowprofile Mill-Max sockets to have the chips low as possible.In this scenario, I can't place BeamRacer directly in the socket, because it will collide with the SID chip (stereo SID's installed).If I use a precision socket as riser, then it does fit on board, but it's too high so Im unable to screw back the keyboard. (VIC collide with the keyboard on the back plastic edge).Solution might be to milll down the plastic back of the keyboard by 5mm or make a reposition adapter board. Did somebody experienced the same with C64R?
