FS: Popeye board set, power supply - SOLD
Here's the story on this boardset - I received it from someone in a warehouse buy. I KNOW it's spent time in a storage shed, because the board cage is very dirty. I have not taken it apart to clean it - I will leave that pleasure to the new owner. Expect all manner of debris inside, I'm sure.
When I received it the video connector was jacked up pretty bad. I got it to a functional state, and plugged everything into my Nintendo cab. I got the board to boot, but there were graphics artifacts and glitches. Wiggling the card edge connector seemed to remedy the problem, but I can't be sure. After about 30 seconds to a minute the board began to reboot, then boot to garbage.
I'm sure the power supply needs to be rebuilt. Likely it's been over 20 years since this was fired up.
Your money gets you the board cage, boardset, Popeye power supply, and power harness, including power switch. Please purchase this as a 'NON WORKING' item, and don't have any expectations. There's LOTS of good parts here, and it should help somone out who's trying to get a Popeye restore started, or just needs extra parts.
Pics coming later tonight.
