I'm loven it!!

interesting!!! should have used a Jag cd

well i had gotten a hold of another hard drive, so i hooked it up with my machine and it works. so I reluctantly put my original hard drive in and now that one works too!! did a update and everthing is working good now! good good corby

PINK!!! just one more suggestion how about some audience in the back ground? here an example: the face flipping is great can't for this to go on a cart! corby

ordered the update cd from microsoft. man I hope this works

well I'm going to out on a limb, and say if the cd tray does not work than i guess the cd rom is garbage. and if there is no picture, i'm thinking its the gpu?

B!

a friend gave me his old xbox 360 dated back from july 11 06. there is no video, none whatsoever. and the tray does not open. no rrod....yet! the cd drive is a hitachi lg. any ideas? corby

I gave up on trying to my my own update CD with the download file. I ordered the actual update CD directly from Microsoft for free (plus $2 S&H) and after waiting a month for the CD <grin>, I'm finally playing classic Xbox games on my son's 360 console! Hope this helps, Cal well trying to use the burn the update to cd didn't work!!! so maybay I'll try that and order the cd from them! thanks

It says that: atari later began to use bankswitching in 1988, releasing 64K and later 128K (1 megabit games). By the end of the system’s life cycle, most games were 128K in size, with a few being 144K. While the system was certainly capable of playing even larger games (4 megabit and beyond) no games of that size were developed. That I did not know! Now if they did that in the first place, develop 7800 games in 4 mbs or more. Would they have had a better chance at winning the war with Nintendo, or Sega????

hmmmm how much will they go for??? I think i would be interested!

LMAO!!!!

i played the dk and dk jr. for A8 and i was impressed just like the arcade. although the colecovision did have better graphics.

I seperated the soldering points this morning before going to work, so I did that and well......... she worked. Just want to thank everyone who helped out with saving the old girl. Corby

Can the Sears Video Arcade II, be turned into a atari 7800? changed the cart slot and the chips. that would be one cool mod. but nothing is impossible these days.

see thats the thing? I don't get a solid black screen i get nothing but the blue screen from the tv. like its not even hooked up to the tv. i changed the rf cable still nothing is happening in the pic that i have taken what is that blue tube between the left difficulty switch and black and white switch on top. it sorta looks alittle bit burned on the left side but not much? another question? should solder points be seperate from eachother, or does it matter if the solder spread to the next prong???? just wondering.

I soldered a new voltage regulator. fired it up, but still nothing! after awhile the heat sink was a little warm. could it be its getting power, but not shooting out picture???

great guy did some business with him everything went smooth!

when i first tried to solder the heat sink cage I did get it kinda hot. So I may have buggered it up???

ok I'll try that!!! thanks

I unsoldered it but it still doesn't work. there is this white residue where the 3 prongs lead into the heat sink. is this right or is this leakage. where is this 5v regulator located?

That is a heat sync for the regulator. I don't think it's supposed to ground to the board or it's a short circuit. It's supposed to "float". Hopefully it's not dead when you undo it. thank you for the imfo r.cade! learning as I go.

I got this awhile back and i finally decided to work on it. the color and graphics were weren't all that great, color flicker, and graphics were all over the place. SO i cleaned out the cart slot, pretty dirty, opened her up and reseated the chips, tested it out and it seemed to be ok. put i pacman arcade, adjusted the color. worked great getting ready to put it all back together again but i wanted to check the solder points on the switch board, and it seemed the black piece, just below the power switch was loose, and the solder point was broke, so i tried to solder it so it won't jiggle anymore. trying to get the solder to stick to the little post that holds that bracket with the 3 prongs. but it sorta held it snug. so i tried it again to see if any diference, but now the atari doesn't even turn on, and no picture? should I have left this bracket alone? And what does it do? was it a connection for the would be speakers??? corby here is the pic, its bad but you'll see what I mean.
