Test your Genesis with a stand-alone RGB cable, if the problem is still there - then there's a fault on the Genesis itself.
If not, then it may be the patch cable for the 32X.
This seems somewhat likely, as you have already eliminated the 32X by testing another one...

Hello once again folks – after a VERY long time, my next mod is ready!
Some people will remember me from my Radica mods HERE:

Anyways onto the meat-and-potatoes of this article...

The SEGA ...

My 3.41 UK Launch PS3 just went YLOD...

And just on the Day I got a new 600GB HDD...RAGE!

Has anyone found a reliable BGA reballing service in the U.K.?

Failing that - a BGA reballing service in Europe...

(and NO - I do not want to do the heat gun fix!)

Thanks in advance!

Well, the schematic helps - but only because I got the pictures from @sam_thornley describing where all the stuff is on the board. :roll:

I really hate when people go to the trouble of doing a scematic and then don't bother showing you where the heck the components are on the board! :?

Lucky ...

I'd say roughly £15-20 GBP if it's the Street Fighter 2 SCE version...

...maybe less for the original versions.

Here ya go!

I always snag them from eBay - they appear from time to time...you've just gotta be patient!

I'm going back to finish off my second moded Radica shortly, but noticed some extra infos about this great little GOAC since I last dabbled (it's been a LONG time).

Congrats to @sam_thornley for his VERY nice portable for the Radica!

There are some details I want to know before I crack-on with the ...

That would be the infos located here:

Am I correct?

Has anyone done an RGB MOD on one of these yet?

I'm thinking of nabbing one from eBay and doing a 50Hz PAL/60Hz NTSC and RGB MODs to the unit.

I've managed to find info about the 50Hz PAL/60Hz NTSC MOD...but can't seem to locate anything about RGB.

From what I've read it "should" be possible as ...

Hmm...so instead of a three line signal amp...

I just add another amp for the c-synch signal as well.

...problem is that the amp "barely" fits inside the SCART plug hood as it is!

Hmm, I guess I'll have to internalize the AMP in the N64.

Although in hindsight - this is probably safer anyhow ...

Okay, this has been bugging me for a while now, so I FINALLY decided to do something about it.

I have a nicely modded USA N64 with the following done to it...

1) RGB lines output directly from the VDC to the AV out.
[Kynar wire routed through the mainboard VIAs to avoid having to cut/mod any case ...

Cheers @segasonicfan!

Remember folks "sticky" is GOOD in forums - and BAD when you get superglue on your fingers!

LOL!

Heh, I know it only runs on 3.3v, but I wanted to see if the 5v output would make any difference in compatibility - since the REAL Genny has a 5v output on the cart slot. :roll:

Unfortunately it didn't do anything (except for boosting the video output colours a bit) :P

Oh, and @segasonicfan ...

Those of you interested in some of the other MODs for the Radica (other than the cartrige slot).
