gtsamour Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Who knows.... on mine the display was also shifted to the left but also on the lower part of the screen some graphics were hidden underneath the window as shown on the last picture of mine (1991 SEGA). Only when I pushed the screen on the highest possible point (with the pcb inside the casing) were the picture vertically aligned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLynxer Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Excuseme....I know that this would be a discussion on Lynx McWill mod and we are on an Atari forum.... But talking about Sega Game Gear in general... Could anyone tell me which Sega Master System games don't work well (with the Master Gear converter) on 2 asics machines? I've tested (on a 2 asics MCWILL modded...so we remain in topic ) : Wonder Boy Hang On The Cyber Shinobi Bubble Bobble Super Monaco GP Wimbledon Double Dragon Out Run So the SMS games I've got and only Out Run has problems (random colored squares on the screen....which don't appear on the 1 asic I've got) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtsamour Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 New Zealand Story (SMS) seems to run like crazy on my 2 asic GG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill.T Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Rather than go through the previous pages... is it normal for the McWill lcd to show different colours on some games (i.e zybots) and the retro logo on saints Lynx SD cart when doing a side by side / multiplayer comparison?

McWill Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Will take some photos later today. (I attached the pics you sent me by email) I guess the wiring of D0-D3 is incorrect. Please check again. Perhaps there's a short circuit at the old LCD ribbon. If the wires are correct, the SUZY IC could be defective. I had several LYNX-II with defective SUZY ICs caused by overvoltage. With original LCD mostly you won't notice it. But with my LCD mod you will see everything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2600 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I've been away from this thread awhile. Is a Nomand or Turbo Express application forthcoming? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudje Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) A short shout from another happy Lynx II user that enjoys the new screen intensely! Thanks a lot for this piece of hardware and the guy who installed it for me. Now I'm just waiting for my time in the Multicard queue and than have a very nice piece of retro gaming equipment.

marvio Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 So, how do I get my hands in one of these? Sorry, been away from the retro gaming community for a while and kinda lost touch with all the developments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coope1999 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) Hi, Does anyone in the UK offer to fit this mod? I know it can go to Germany but wondered if I could keep my Lynx in the country. Thanks, Craig Edited February 5, 2017 by coope1999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LynxHandyCaster Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 The mod kits are available again now Hi, McWill: New to the forum with a (hopefully working) Lynx II on the way. Where can I find your LCD-A/V mods, please? Also, as a novice to soldering, do you offer modding a mailed-in Lynx II with the LCD-A/V mod yourself? Thanks.

+-^CrossBow^- Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 So I'm in the process of prepping my Lynx II for the McWill mod and was noticing that when I checked for the +5 at the + from the old coil I noticed that my lynx only shows +4.86v from that location? Is this fairly normal? Too low? I have recently recapped it and replaced the Q12 mosfet. However, the original zener is still installed as the source I got everything from, didn't have the zener's yet to provide (But plan to soon). Anyway, my lynx is obviously not putting out anything near +5.45v but isn't really providing +5 fully either. I did test this with using the AC adapter plugged in and not batteries. But the Lynx power light doesn't blink or anything..so..yeah. +4.86v fairly normal then and okay to move forward with the mod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
