So I've had issues with my Gyruss board since I got it. The primary concern was a burnt up pin on the edge connector which I repaired using copper tape. At some point I had to do it again which turned out better than the first time since I knew a little better about what I was doing.
Unfortunately, now the game doesn't boot at all. Voltages check out fine and I've verified that it's not the monitor (meaning it doesn't play blind). I tried shoestring's test rom tonight and that didn't come up either. If I understand correctly, that should be the first code to run at start up if the chip is present so if that doesn't work then that should help narrow things down, yeah?
Anyone have any ideas to get me pointed in the right direction? Hoping it's just something stupid I'm overlooking or simply not thinking to check.
Just once I'd like it to be that easy
