Re: GBC cartridge question

That's kinda weird. My Pokemon Blue game stopped saving just a few years after I got it. Maybe I just caught missingno one too many times..

Re: GBC help

I have the exact same problem! No one seems to know where the fuse is. I've been searching around the net, but havn't found anything yet. I'll let you know if I find anything out though.

Re: Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

I dont really care much about my dreamcast and I like a challenge. So why not make a DC portable?

Re: Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

Yeah, I found that thread shortly after I made that post. Those screens look a lot nicer than a pocket tv. As soon as I get money in my paypal, I'm going to order one.

So, what do you guys think I should do with the screen? Should I make a dreamcast portable or a PS1 portable?

Re: SP in a GBC/GBP Project

Yeah, I was thinking that I'd need to find a new screen cover. How did you make it?

Also, how did you go about cramming that motherboard into the GBP? Did you use a dremel or what?

SP in a GBC/GBP Project

About a year ago I posted something on here about doing a project like this, but I wasn't experienced and didn't have enough time to do it. Now that I know more about what I'm doing and have a few GBP shells laying around, I've decided to take on this project.

Before I get started, I have a few ...

Broke a GBC - Blown Fuse Maybe?

The about a week ago I managed to take the backlight out of an old broken iphone. I thought it would be cool to fashion it into my gameboy color.

The only problem was that it needed 18V of power to run. So I decided to just have it run through the link cable jack and to two 9V batteries. (Stupid ...

Re: Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

It's to thin. There's no way I could fix it. I'll probably just move on to another project and try and do better this time. All I need is a new screen to use. Any recommendations?

It was a Casio TV-970b.

Re: Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

Nevermind. I ripped the ribbon cable connecting the screen to the main board. The whole thing's ruined :(

Re: Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

Alright, I added a resistor and everything on the screen seemed really faded, So I added another and it seemed exactly the same. I decided to take the resistors off because I'd rather have it over saturated than under saturated, but now it still looks faded. Even without the resistors attached.

The ...

Re: Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

I'm using composite. I bought some brand new batteries and put them in and that helped reduce the static a lot! Thanks so much!

But now the colors are kinda over saturated and depending on what channel I put it on, the colors will be completely off. It's usually allways blue. I have a 10 Ohm ...

Casio TV gets too much static - HELP!

I just spent the last 2 days working on my 1st portable. I got every put together and it works great! The only problem is that if I leave it on for more than 2 minutes the screen gets REALLY fuzzy and there's static everywhere.

I have no idea what to do or what to look for. I checked all my solder ...
