Have you ever thought about using Sanyo Eneloop batteries ? They are really great.

That's very interesting, that crossed my mind when I changed my Nomad screen, but I did not look deeper into that.

Is there a list somewhere of what should be removed ?

Thanks.

No, you don't.
Your Super Nintendo is already outputting RGB, just plug it to your "Jap' PIN21 to Component converter". If you have to modify something, it's the RGB cable which goes from your...

The difference between Euro SCART and Japanese 21-PIN is the assignment of pins, look at http://www.mmmonkey.co.uk/console/other/jrgb.htm.
Then just open a cable on the SCART side and reassign pins...

Do you think that the Sega Genesis Demo Unit switches all the 64 pins of the cartridge connector ?

It would be weird, because a SMS with an integrated game doesn't need that. I know it's not the...

Hi,

I have tested with the same 3 games you gave and many others and I REALLY did not see any vertical line. Even after changing TV (SONY Trinitron) settings (contrast, luminosity, colors). I can...

I bought screens from different shops/sellers, and got one without buttons and I was able to cut the board and shrink it at the desired size.

This is how I did it.

Yes, that's what I think too. First, I'm looking at mechanical parts and I forgot about the reset button stuck at low level. Will try it. Thanks.

Hi again,

I'm trying to repair another MD, model 1 this time.

The console is powering up fine, it makes the TV switch to the right AV channel, but I get no video neither sound. I've tried on...

I don't think that the voltage is so important because there is a voltage converter which is converting the 9 V (6 x 1.5 V) to 5 V I guess. So feeding 7.2 V (6 x 1.2 V) won't change anything.
What's...

All is working fine. I've added another power connector with reverse polarities to be able to plug a MD1 power supply.
I'm gonna make a quick switch to play games in full screen.

Thanks again.

Great... I was quite sure you will be the one to answer :) Thanks a lot.
Any chances that something after this filter was fried too ?

Hi,

I've fried a power supply while testing a (non-working) MD2 someone gave me.
I immediately thought of a short-circuit, then I disassembled it and saw that + and - where connected (now I will...

If your Nomad is not modded for region selection, then there shouldn't be problems about B&W or NTSC/PAL. The Nomad outputs NTSC and that's all, my PAL Sonic plays at 60 Hz (NTSC), I have just...

If it can help I took some pics (external link to french forum) of my replacement.
Image quality is nicest in reality than on pictures.

Yes, I agree, I bought one "out of order" Saturn which had this problem. I saw that the CD-ROM (I always use a burnt audio CD to test CD/DVD consoles) was rubbing against the case, so with 2 flat...

I agree with the 3 comments above, Rob Webb's modchips are very good and simple too install. I already bought at least 10 from him. Once I got one not working and he exchanged it without any problem.

Yes, you can clean it, see dadou55's tutorial from a "Google translated" french forum.

Yes, I already have taken pictures of the disassembled NDSL screen.
But, that will not be soon, it's been months that mostly everything is packed here because we're looking for a new residence and...

I plan to put a DS Lite backlight (DS Lite replacement screens are cheap) to replace the CFL tube.
And I will use an ICL7660 (CMOS voltage converter) to get the 12 V / 10 mA needed.

I have an "old" CRT LG Flatron, it accepts NTSC Jap composite and NTSC US composite, but no S-Video. I have to try Jap RF, but I guess you're right about this point and it will not work.

I think...

To help you to plug well your floppy ribbon.
On the floppy side, look clocely at the connector, you may see a "1" or a triangle. It's the side the red cable has to be plugged.
On the motherboard...

Look on your motherboard, you may find a jumper with something like CLR_CMOS written near it. Just move the jumper to the other position, wait a bit, put the jumper back and all BIOS settings are...
