Like many others, I've pulled my old 2600A Vader out of a box expecting it to work perfectly. It is not. I've read up on it a bit. So far, I have cleaned the case and the motherboard with q-tips and alcohol, etc. but it is still not functioning. I've tried both Bezerk and Spider-Man cartridges. Here is what is occuring (with photos): Here is the case: Here is the motherboard (Revision 16): Close-up of the RF modulator(?): When I turn the 2600 power switch on, it changes from black snow (off) to just a white screen (on): And, I'm attaching it using a Radio Shack RCA to Coax connector: The only other information I can give is that I used a small allen key to adjust the RF modulator and at best it gives me a few color lines across the white background. Any help or information about what the problem could be would be appreciated. Thanks.
