... exxos & Icky - 7 days (Winners) - :twisted: ... ... I am so surprised no one has noticed that @exxos and I have broken one of the rules :) in my last post. Probably two rules. ... 7 days? Started 21 Nov and posted a GB6 pic 4 dec. That's 13 days.... :lol: And exxos hasn't even started yet.....

Do ram test cycles with yaart maybe? It wasn't plummer flux you used because that can be corrosive on pcb?

One wire to many on the buffer bypass for HDD. You need to remove the leftmost wire.

There are two different controller boards for the SF354. Which do you have? One have a few logic chip on it and the other one it's just a pcb with traces on it (and two relay). The one with logic chips on it won't work out of the box. The other one should work fine with double sided disks. The ribbo...

Looks like you got a bit or 2 in the red line somewhere not contacting. You were right about a bit missing. First I checked all my soldering and they seemed fine. So I measured all the stuff on the red side of shifter, DAC and mux. I found that pin 27 (R2) of the shifter didn't have contact with pi...

...When will power up be :)? Now! Well, it's working... but I got no floppy. I also got very faint red or missing red in display. Have to look into that tomorrow.

Thank you! I just held up the connector from the keyboard. Didn't check that at all. I even have a original motherboard beside me. Clumsy.

...and the jumpers of course.

Mostly done! Time to put in the IC in their sockets.

I finally got some time to do some work on the board. I think I got most of the small itsy bitsy components soldered in now. I maybe do jumper pins next and then sockets. And ports and fixes of course. I lifted the 3 pins on the DAC. I'm going to leave them unattached to anything and see what the di...
