ATW800/2 in a MonSTErbo powered STE

[HigashiJun]

I've been working on this project for a while now, but my busy schedule isn't making things easy.

Since I have an STE with a MonSTErbo fitted inside and the board has a "MonSTEr bus", I wanted to make use of it somehow.

I had to mod the ATW800/2 a bit in order to fit it in my machine, so I removed the USB port and shortened the DIN connector (it goes without saying that I tested the ATW800 in the STE before modifying it !).

It now fits perfectly, but I need to cut the case to have access to the HDMI connector or try to relocate it with a HDMI flex cable...

Wow very cool project! Looking forward to seeing the results.

Thanks.

2 or 3 things to sort out and it should be good.

I need Monstebo for my short ST :)

I need/want/must have it for my ATW800/2 equipped Mega STe! ;)

For short STs, the ThunderStorm Team has a new gimmick:

The TwiSTer is mentioned - is that even available?

I'm not sure I've seen any posts from anyone using
one.

Thanks much.

Ok, so a flex HDMI cable won't be possible as there is no clearance between the HDMI connector and the STE case.

Hate that, but I have to mod my case...

Doh. Forgot about you having one - slipped my mind.

I know I'm probably just overlooking it, but when I followed that one link it had all of
their products listed but I didn't see the TwiSTer actually on that page.

Good luck with this project - it looks like it's coming along nicely. :)
