vtk Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 is your IC207 (6522 VIA) chip soldered in, or in a socket? if it is in a socket, try re-seating the chip and then see if the patterns (vectors) on your screen change or, with the chip in place, you can apply pressure to the IC207 chip with your hand as the vectrex is booting up and see if the shapes of the vectors on the screen change. if they do, you would need to check IC207 is soldered ok without bad joints or if the socket is dirty or bad, or, the chip itself is bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaikoN Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 hi friend thx for answer, I took advantage to remove them all and clean the socket, I have also been pressing 1 to 1, no result, does not change the image, Is socket ic207, Do you think that 6522 can be the problem? thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
