Maybe I'll turn it into wall art?

Frame it, be worth millions in years to come :p

Hope you have better luck this time!

How's close to power up are you?

Hey, in my book a broken Atari is preferable to a working windoze machine every day of the week and twice on Sunday.. :) :)

No arguments from me.

Just powered it up. Its not doing much so far. Wont have much time this afternoon for much more though.

So had a little bit more time this afternoon.

And I think I have a dodgy STF board. no Vsync on either the MMU or Monitor port, which explains why I'm struggling to get a picture. All metered out and it goes to the first via and promptly disappears into the abyss.

So I get to do two more patch wires than the rest of you :P :lol:

Now that will have to wait till tomorrow. Then back to seeing what else I didn't solder correctly.

OH no, more chaos :( I'm not at home until tomorrow night , so can't post a image of where it goes, but think *somewhere* I did post each layer already..

I'll connect it as the schematic for now, so not a problem. Afaik it's glue 38 to monitor port and then to 51 on mmu.

It's all a learning curve.

I assume you did the vsync fix ? As I think it went via a inverter before..

Yes I did the whole list but will recheck it in a bit
