never mind, screen cracked in the corner

Last night, i removed the transformer on my screen and then put LEDs on it, plugged +5v from regulator to the LEDs, and then LEDs to 227ohm resistor, then to ground (scrapped some of the covering off from above the screen for ground. i tried testing it with zelda, and when the main screen comes up ...

i had a similar problem last night with my PSOne screen. try this... take the screen that you corrently have hooked to a system, and turn it on and get video going to it. take a flashlight and shine it on the screen, i found that it was actually working, just that the backlight/inverter was dead ...

ok, so how should i lower the voltage, i tested it and get about 10.38v

One of the two 7805s powers the audio amp, the other runs various 5v circuitry. The chroma decoder (actually it does more than that) runs off the unregulated input. That's why it has to run at a certain voltage to work correctly. Consequently, this is the part of the screen that is fried when you ...
