I picked up a nonworking SI Deluxe yesterday and I was wondering if anyone had a machine I could test my board in? As soon as you start it up, it makes the flying saucer noise constantly. Im sure its messed up, but I would like to see if it will throw up anything on the monitor.
 
Does it just spit up a bunch of garbage on the screen? It might very well be the power supply, my SI did that and it turned out to be the reset line on the power supply

it very well could be. The monitor isnt working at all. It hums but no neckglow. Im going to have to fiddle with the power supply I guess and see if its getting the correct voltage. All the lights are getting the correct volts, but I guess those dont get power from the board, so I cant rule that out.

Kinda new to this still, so it should be fun :)

Edit: I just saw that link you provided. THANKS!!!
 
jdoz, if we ever hook up I have a working Clowns and I am pretty sure you can test a SI boardset in a Clowns (it is the same boardset).
