1088XEL Atari ITX Motherboard DIY Builders Thread
rockdoc2010 replied to Firedawg's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Well, I built one and it was a bust. I had a few IC sockets that at the time I did not notice that there were no holes drilled into the pins for my gold plated machine pin sockets. I had to drill holes to correct but to no avail, it was a failure. de-soldering is a bitch! I built another one and it fired right up! Expect a trouble or two but... persevere! Enjoy your build and ask before you leap! Douglas -
Tong Schematics are available although hard to decipher. When matched with 1200XL , and a little hard work you would be a God if you would build a motherboard! Douglas

WHAT preorder? Douglas

RGB2VGA: customizing a GBS-8200 for a cleaner low-lag image
rockdoc2010 replied to mytek's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Unfortunately, I am using the PIC as is but I have to go thru the button sequence to select my resolution every time I power back up. and I found that you have to be quick about it. I am also still getting the red led blink followed by two short blinks. When I adjusted the onboard switches to a different resolution, i did get a half second green led. I assume from what I have read in the thread that that is the GBS initializing the parameters. Cant wait for Sophia 3 to come out. -
RGB2VGA: customizing a GBS-8200 for a cleaner low-lag image

Well, It took me a three week endeavor to get this to run but it now works. 1088XLD and VBXE and VGA2RGB carrier board. THANK YOU MYTEK! I have very muted colors. Attract mode colors are off. I flashed my GBSCTRL PIC out of unit using the joy2pic stick. Switches in the correct place and I have a stable pic to my VGA input on my screen. I have a DELL monitor on the way and perhaps that will help. We will see... Douglas -
I just ran across a page that had what is called and FCC label. Do a search for the label with that number and you may find it. FCC BPA83A800 Douglas

Thank You Very Much! I was chasing issues with three 1050's giving BOOT ERROR and swapping mechs and MB Wound up being a bad power supply. I DL instructions for what I thought was a dead happy and whooldathunkit... It works with a tandon mech and installation instructions.
