| Color Classic VGA Mod Undo? | |
| Posted by: ObeyDaleks on 2025-04-26 17:16:38 Hey folks, Today I decided to "downgrade" my color classic to standard resolution. It was impractical for my aging eyes. My CC was modded using the ribbon cable, so I purchased another stock harness, thinking that would do it. Looks like it worked in terms of resolution, but now my picture is WAAAAY too wide - like outside the screen). The horizontal width is already at minimum. I feel like I'm missing something. I did this mod years ago, so I don't remember what else could be causing this. Any ideas? It's probably something simple. Oh, and I did remove R116, but it didn't change anything. | |
