    Before you give up entirely, did you only measure this 5v on the output of the 7805? If so, I would suggest checking all the +5 and Vcc terminals on the chips to ensure that power is actually getting to the components before calling it a lost cause.

    The procedure would work but be careful not to bridge pins when you do it. That link is no good though as that is the pinout list for the cartridges, not the system.

    Glad to hear! The main reason I make the videos is so people can see inside their hardware and hopefully inspire others to tinker! :) I take it no luck though from what I've just read?

    I'm going to take the cold harsh route and say;
    <sarcasm> You call yourself a nerd? You failed! You've brought shame on this community and your family!</sarcasm>
