HELP!!! Color Classic analog board help!
Posted by: 80sboy on 2020-04-05 16:25:42
Well, I have a sinking feeling I did something wrong, but I'm not sure what - 

  Did the VGA mod (1st option, cutting the analog board) and I got it all back together but when I try to power it on I get a few high pitch clicks and it doesn't turn on. Here are some pictures of what I did - 

  I triple made sure I isolate pin 8, but now when I check it it, there's continuity!  I removed the jumper at J78 but was I supposed to jumper J79? I'm not sure if you only need to do that for the HiRez mod.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, I have a 575 board ready to go in this - hoping nothing is unfixable....

OK - it seems like I lifted the pad at pin 20 - argh - the wire that goes to 24 - it looks like the pad runs to J79 which is not jumper anyways - so is that ok? Also, does J79 need to be jumpered?
