  1. I tried to send Money to you CJ, NOT myself. And Asked you, person to person, if I could have my people pay YOU and me re-pop those. BTW, I don't need you to to do the ST ports. No one was out to screw you and I was trying to let other people in this community have a nice dvd style case with labels like I do. I thank you for the work and I am sorry we had a miss-understanding.

  2. DO NOT HOLD THE HOT AIR TIP DIRECTLY TO THE CONTACTS. USE A "SHIT PCB " TO LEARN YOUR "HAND HOLD" DISTANCE BEFORE TRYING!!!

    If NOT, You WILL Burn, Overheat and otherwise fuck-up shit, practice first..... Here, i'll even give you this. use the hot air side with the smallest tip at max temp.(MAX TEMP IS 450-480 C, NOT F, OVER 1,000 DEGREES, BE CAREFULL) 75% airflow controll. Have a small pry tool or knife edge under the chip, leaning towards one side, heat that side first, it only take 10seconds or less of moving over one side OF THE SOLDER CONTACTS. With pressure under the chip, that one side should lift right off the board. A quick pass on the other side should lift the other smt points ( the other side of the chip'S SOLDER JOINTS TO THE BOARD). Use a mag lens to line up the new chip on the solder pads of the pcb, use a long tool of choice to hold chip in place once it is in place on the solder pads. Heat one side, no more than 10 sec, then the other side. Done. gO PUT AN oeM ATARI jAG POWER psu ON YOU BOARD, IF WITH A GAME INSTALLED, THE L.E.D COME ON OR YOU HAVE A DISPLAY ON TV, THEN CONGRATS, you did it>

  3. There you go folks. If you still need me, Repair service WILL remain in effect BUT, As I have Said, Expect Delays. If you need your repair rather quickly, then tell me prior to shipping. Thanks and enjoy, nick. ALSO, If you "F-up" your system, I will still look at it, after we speak and figure out if it has any hope. :) Always hope it does. :)

  4. Total transparency: Above the part is listed, here is the tool needed to actually use/replace it at WAY less than it cost me years ago. Clone Unit Works great: http://www.ebay.com/itm/898D-2in1-SMD-Rework-Soldering-Station-Hot-Air-Gun-Iron-Welder-LCD-11-Tips-/252083728044?hash=item3ab15c6eac

    And the link to the u38 above is active but here it is again: http://console5.com/store/catalogsearch/result/?q=atari+u38

    Also, here is the jaguar base cap kit as well: http://console5.com/store/kits/console-cap-kits/atari/atari-jaguar-cap-kit.html

  5. I sent onalok my Jag CD so that he could repair it. I just got it back from him recently, and he did a great job. I'd highly recommend him to anyone in need of repairs for the system.

    He explained in detail what the problem was with the unit and kept me in the loop the whole time.

    I got my Jag CD in 1999 when it was actually affordable, played it for a couple years then focused more on college. I started played it again in the last few years and noticed that it rarely, if ever read a game. If it did, it took lots of tries and only certain games would work if any.

    I always thought most everybody's Jag CD's were faulty, since I heard they were fragile and unreliable. But then I saw members on here talking about theirs always working from day one and thought, how in the hell? I recently bought Protector Resurgence and some demos, and barely any of them worked. That's when I realized I need to give the dusty ol' gal a checkup.

    Anyway, I say go for it if you need to re-energize your Jag CD. Mine's finally working perfectly for the 1st time and saving me lots of rage and frustration. So yeah, good times.

    Don't "cherry pic" repairs.. B-rad, why don't you send me an Alpine II with dev console and cd unit. Send A falcon 030 with that, I can use it, you are not so why not? only one real "prob" system on hand and I will replace the damned thing with a working unit if I have to. Besides, I want the "Back to The Future" trilogy on cinepak for Jag from the Guy anyway.

  6. There will be no kickstarter for the demo of D3 on Jag. FREE.

    Nope, Doom 3 is playable on the Jag CD that's what is said here, and together with what's said in the "homebrew" thread:

    http://atariage.com/forums/topic/166990-jaguar-homebrew-projects/page-4

    He has 15 months to go, before the dead line is out. ;)

    (Next to that I just wondered what "3rd Doom" was - which, in the answer here, was also called Final Doom. Since he said its NOT that, I just wanted to know what it was (not)!)
