RickyDean Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I always loved my SCSI card! I never got into mine too much, as I was going through some other (headaches) at in the late 90's,, but I plan on working on putting it to use soon. getting a lot of goodies together for it.

Shift838 Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 I got it all together and connected into Heatwave at 38.4k with a HDX modded RS232 card. All is working, SCSI, RAM Disk, TripleTech, etc. But.... I think i may have jarred a wire off my homemade 2 port cart expander for port #1. Port #1 has my FR99 permanently mounted and selecting any program from the menu the menu blanks, but the FlashROM99 graphic title remains and constantly flashes. So I need to open it back up and inspect the cartridge selector switch and the cartridge expander board. 99% done! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 fixed my issue with my 2 port cartridge port. As suspected I knocked a wire off. Here is the inside view of both sides of the All in One and the back view. You can't really see the 99/4A console mainboard with everything else but it's all there. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+9640News Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Chris, I think you have done pretty much everything I would want or consider. Having said that, what you did is a LOT of work............. Beery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, what you did is a LOT of work............. Beery It was a lot of work, but I enjoyed figuring it out. The hardest part was getting everything to fit! Only a full size tower would do it. I did use a different power supply for the 99/4A mainboard. With my new 838 PEB board that is going to bolt right up to a ATX case it may be a bit easier and along with my 838-IO it will be a lot less cramped in the case! I will post new pics when I get all that done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
