This one of my 6128's . If i  connect joyctick(not working) or not the keyboard have the same results.
also membrane tested: i use another full working keyboard from another cpc and i have the same results.

Token

It could be the AY. (often reported)

If the contacts on keyboard's socket are clean and the same pattern appears by pressing a key or without the keyboard attached, then is definitely the AY.

without the keyboard nothing typed!
when i press a key like enter or any of the other keys space or any letter or number nothing happens
the only keys that work showed in the video
works ! ha ha the type all of these letters
but this is for anytime i press it
and with any keyboard!
the very best is the key Μ that types capitals and enter, pressing again lower cases and enter

Bryce

AY needs to be replaced.

Bryce.

urgent!!
:o :o :o :o
I change the AY and the problem still exist!!!
i think that sound's like a joke but it is not!
In the first photo it is the old chip taken from the cpc
the three other's is from the cpc with this crazy keybord!!

If you connect the Joystick can you get any characters to appear on the screen ? by pressing fire or /up/down/left/right

If Not then you could change the 74ls145.
Or if that did not work then the 8255.
Please use good quality sockets.

Good luck    Ray

of course the joystick dont work!

with the new ay the problem it is just the same .the same buttons the same kjgodfsgndonfsdm
but when i press several buttons i see some keyboard commands (like <- or X) pressing specific button from keyboard (something like fdshnu9-<X) NOTE the "fdshnu9-<X" it is NOT what i get i type it now from my mind just to show you )

Yup, the 74LS145 is the next most likely culprit.

What museum did you find that chip in?? It's from 1976, the wrong type and unlikely to work properly. It should be a 74LS145.

As Audronic says, then it really only can be the 8255, however I still have problems believing this because the 8255 is pretty much bullet-proof.
