I want one too. don't hesitate to wake me if there's a new batch

Hello, I'm interested by a PS/2 board including PS/2 simm.

@Rybags This one is using the GEM ? 110309123633155975.png

No, if I want to emulate, I won't get the hardware. At least you could say : "Actually if you wish to run stuff properly, then get a ST" But I have already 1 STf and 1 STe. Want to see it ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8QtqyWx16A But I still want to emulate on Amiga.

The keyboad is now working and so the 720K ST/PC floppies (I mean real floppies on Amiga). And for the Amiga that can't store the bitmap in memory, check that :

Hello, I have a French Colecovision that has never been opened before (A 1983 Rev-D). Under the French stickers there are the US Stickers and inside there is a "PAL/SECAM Converter" that is located under the horizontal vents of the console. The quality is very good and different that the "other" French version (the one that doesn't have this module inside). I tried to find some information about this converter but I didn't found. It's just for my culture.

ok lol

Aghh, OK, I see what you mean. Don't know how I missed that before. let me know

you can start a simple thing like I said earlier: check the continuity from each legs of the top side 68000 to his solder point beneath the mainboard. if the battery has leaked only in this area, the problem is probably there. another idea, you can also use a needle and scratch the conductive parts of the socket which has been damaged...at least the ten ones on the right (both sides)

Hi dude, Easy, it's one or the two SN74LS5541N. http://www.colecovision.dk/PDF/controller%20chip%20replace.pdf I have some new ones if you want

I have inverted Right & Left ^^ Well this amiga seems pretty easy to fix.

Hi there A green screen means that there's a problem in the Chip Ram. A yellow screen means that an error has been detected in the 68000. You need to check if your battery hasn't damaged some tracks, and that the 68000 socket is still good. From what I've seen in your 1st picture I would replace it. must be rotten under the socket. Edit : You can also see that on the board all the solder points on the right are shining, those who aren't (on the left) have been attacked by the acid of the battery. the half of your socket has also been attacked, and maybe it's not very conductive. If you own a ohm meter, remove the board, put back the cpu and test that each legs are conductive to the other side of the board.

SUCCESS !!!!!!!! I'm happy to inform you that I have successfully fixed the Colecovision. So...What I've done... First I tried to replace 3 100nF which where linked to the 1st HEF4066BP -> No change I went on ebay I I have purchased 4 Ics : 74LS05, 74LS04, and both HEF4066BP. To gain some time, I have decided to unsolder them and put some sockets. Then the idea was to invert the 2 HEF4066BP (I thought that maybe not all the switches on the 1st HEF4066BP were used). Once I put back the 4 ICs, I give a try and the Coleco was working perfectly. Here is a video : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1566495/Coleco/Final.MOV And what look like my board : All 10uF cap and 1uF have been replaced, 3 100nF on the left have been replaced. the DRAM comes from my ZX Spectrum. I'm going to invert the 2 HEF4066BP to validate that the issue was here and do a conclusion.
