4164 power cable mod and memory available for purchase anywhere?

Experiencing 1-3-1 on StarGate. Are there 4164 conversions kit available?

A few years ago I went to a switching power supply which helped for a while. Now I am getting the dreaded 1-3-1 again.

I've checked everything obvious. Cables, connections, etc. No help, still 1-3-1.

Since I last went down this road it looks like there are a few options for using 4164's. Some mods call for modding each chip, others modding the PCB and installing unmodded chips. Then I think there is one for just modding the power cable and using unmodded 4164's.

Is anyone making/selling a cable & memory set to do this. I really do not want to have to make my own as I am not so good at soldiering.

Bob Roberts sell the RAM and pre-made adapters. Converting to 4164's is as simple as replacing all the RAM chips and using the power adapter.

Or, you could just troubleshoot the faulty RAM chip. Have you tried switching the "bad" chip with one of the others to see if the problem moves?

Ah, I see it now, thanks.

Yes, tried swapping out the chips. I don't have many to swap with so if it's multiple chips bad I am out of luck.

Thanks
