WHAT preorder? Douglas

i have one if you want it Douglas

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.

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.

Some surface mount LED's under those transparent keys would be epic! FUJI Rainbow RGB leds... This is looking awesome! I cant wait to build one.

sorry the piano has been drinking

it is a matter of posts

it seems the tandon is a bit off of the others i am getting parts to redo that motherboard so we will see

I am totally happy that i have a happy..

was there a difference from tandon tech to the others one?

nope the posts are solid

It seems that I have a Tandon mech that works just fine with a happy upgrade. but it sticks out like 1/8 inch in front. any thoughts? Douglas

I went through swapping motherboards and mechs for my four drives in total frustration recently until i found that I had a defunct power supply. Just enough power to get the power up and head seek and park at start up but boot error after that. A new power supply and I am back up to two stock and one happy drive. the other was used for parts on my 1088xld.. 9 VAC is what you should read on the supply.. mine was putting out 15 vac so it went in the trash.
