  1. ok so my parts unit came in yesterday and i scrounged the SRAM but there was no change gonna start swapping piece by piece till I get change UPDATE: swapped of the R03-9504-021 ROM and if fired right up! just gonna run a few other carts through it now update 2: ran 5 carts they all worked noticed a small amount of intermittent screen bounce/jumping but I can live with it
  2. yeah I slapped it back together the other day after posting and there was no change, I won an untested 2609 on ebay today(taking another gamble) but hey i'll get some spare parts at least
  3. I tested four different carts all had the exact same text in the flash, I also don't know the history of this console to answer that, but it most definitely had all the tabs soldered unfortunately I haven't found another 2906...yet, and thanks for the img yes I tried the reset button on all four carts but to no avail thank you here's the STIC and thank you all for your help and suggestions I'll keep you updated as this all moves (hopefully) forward
  4. ok so i desoldered to tabs to open up the case........what fun!! then i started prying up to roms and they all looked clean so i wanted to check the ones with the heat sinks and the first one I pulled looked like this......ok well I can't seem to upload a pic because I must be dumb. but the bottom says STIC and there is a single bent leg in the corner...and I mean it's tucked way up under Edit: ok so I straightened it out put it back in but still the same symptom green, flash, green, black. I tried to make out what it says in the flash from what I can tell its E E E E E M M then below it is a ton of vertical white lines
  5. any tips for removing the chips so i dont ruin the good ones?
  6. got mine the week before xmas and Gradius worked great the sgm tho wouldnt accept my zaxxon cart tho, found this forum and decided to try the combination again today and now it works fine......weird love the product by the way tryied to buy bosconian but AA is sold out
  7. so i went and bought a 2609 the other day but when i turn it on i get a green screen, followed my a short flash of text, a green screen and then darkness. what's happening and can it be repaired? ive check the transforme and the powerboard they check out fine. ive also tried it with the controllers unplugged to no avail any help with this would be amazing
  8. 1 - Colecovision Expansion module #1 that's it
