  1. Sanding a Particle Board Cabinet: Tips?

    This is the absolute BEST advice I've seen on here for painting a cab. I would also suggest, if you are anal retentive, and a perfectionist like me, ALWAYS shoot your paint, clear coat, whatever. Don't ever use a paint brush, or a roller. Investing in a cheap HVLP setup is cheap ( Harbor freight...

    Hey JamBurglar, Thanks for the awesome info bud!

    How common is it to have the transformer go tits up and fry your monitor?

  5. Is it safe to run old 100v games like DK and Pacman off standard home power???

    Is it safe to run old 100v games like DK and Pacman off standard home power??? I've read mixed takes on this, some say home power blows the monitors. What's the real story?

  9. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    No idea what that means. As it stands, ebay is refunding me, and I have to ship the board back. Moral of the story is, you get what you pay for.
  10. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Still having this issue. Need to either get this sorted, or issue a complaint with Ebay. So if anyone has any further ideas on how to repair this board, it would be much appreciated.
  11. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Anyone have any further suggestions? Love to get this board working.
  12. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Cleaned the contacts with Brasso. They are mint condition now. Still, missing reds. Here are some pics I took of the board. There are no broken traces, or scratches on the board. The SIPS solder side is clean, the black you see on the solder side of the resistors is old pop. I've been trying...
  13. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Ahhh...that one is the one I set my alarm for, and snoozed through the end of the auction. I was extremely displeased about that one. LOL They've been all over Ebay the past couple months. Often times 3 or 4 at a time.
  14. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Probably. I've been watching these boards for over a year, and they never go for less than $200 there. I wasn't willing to pay that, and just kept watching them. For whatever reason, this auction got no play. Was at $133 all the way till the last 10 seconds. And I sniped it. Not sure why...
  15. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Great idea fleetwood472. I use it as well on my NES games, but was worried that it may be a little..."too much" on a board I just spent $150 bucks on. LMAO.
  16. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Channel, I also wanted to note, the board is FULL of bent IC pins on the solder side. Going through your forums ( which I might add is a GOLDMINE of info, thank you ) I noticed on a lot of your repair posts, you indicate straightening IC pins. Am I wrong to assume you mean legs bent on chips...
  17. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Thanks for the tips guys. I'll check it tonight. I dropped the seller a message asking what I should do. Haven't heard back.
  18. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    Hahaha yeah. I tested it with my other turtles board, and it works perfectly. So by the sounds of it, if my harness is working fine with other boards, and my monitor is working fine with other boards, it means there is a problem with VIDEO RED on the turtles in time pcb correct? If so...
  19. Turtles in Time: Missing Reds?

    So I recently bought this turtles in time board on ebay, and in the auction it stated it was 100% working. Item was packaged perfectly, checked it over, and besides some mouse poop and pop stains on the jamma connector, it looked in good shape. Figured I'd test the board. It fired right up...
