Yeah, this CRT isn't so great for hacking, but I must say, I don't think the age has anything to do with it. I've successfully hacked a 1994 JVC...
So I figured it all out. There were a number of things going on: 1) The caps by the 315-5684 were bad (common problem) 2x 100uf (audio output) +...
Thanks for posting back your solution. This kind of post really helps people in the future (sometimes many years) for finding a solution!...
I checked the main power rail (there is only one op amp, its a custom chip with multiple op amps inside actually) and it shows a steady +5v. The...
I did try that. I can look into it more by shorting the input and outputs of the pot. But I really don't think it is that at all because I get a...
Hey all, so I bought a Sega Nomad off of ebay boxed and was really excited to have a complete system finally (I have a working one from some...
wow, thanks so much for explaining all that! Thats nuts...and sounds definitely dangerous for hacking in RGB to the neck board. sounds like I...
Could you say a little more about this? What makes it a "hot" chassis?
Bummmmmmmmer. Nuts. Well, I'll have a look at giving it to the guns then, thanks to Armorant's link. Looks iffy and a bit tricky, since service...
Install a region-free BIOS. I might be able to help you if you want to work out a trade / sale as I have some in stock. -Segasonicfan
ah it always feels good to know my thoughts were on the right track! (Im not super familiar with SNES hardware). Yeah, check around for traces...
yeah, the "Geek Cred" is really annoying. I've been a video OSD nut since the 90s though and I am always striving to get the best, most crisp,...
This circuit didn't work for me but the first posted image works great and has been floating around the net for some time. I wish someone would...
Thanks so much for your help. Any idea on the best way to clamp the signals? I dont know much about it. I can just up the gain with a TH7314 or...
Well, I found a service manual! (attached) It's not the best but it has some useful info.. Hard to track down since there is no model number...
seems to me there are a couple things here: 1) are we sure this isn't the pro-action replay? have you tried these games on a japanese saturn or...
Hey all, So I've converted a standard US consumer-grade CRT to RGB before many years ago and am trying to do it again on a cute little 9" CRT I...
Hey Texian, yeah, the sad thing is, you don't want to do a job like that and still have the problem persist. The only sure fire thing without...
wow, that suuuucks. My vote is for VRAM issues as well, though they will likely need replacing. Could be the video processing chips (the two...
why are you twisting my words about this? Of course bleeder resistors won't help with a LIVE circuit. and you do not always need to work on a...
