I will pay you $150 +shipping to fix my Return of the Jedi Board
Okay, I've fiddled with this this enough. This board will work one day and then be weird the next. I'm getting 5.02V at the board's test points, so I don't believe it's a power issue. I've repaired the edge connector as well. Occasionally, I will get garbage on the screen, but now I'm getting a rolling picture that cannot be stabilized with the vertical or horizontal hold pots on the monitor chassis. I'm also getting "clipping" sound as well. I have wiggled and jiggled all of my wires and can't isolate the cause of the clipping. It's not present when the monitor is on, but the board isn't plugged in. El Dorado says they'll repair it for $150+cost to ship back to me (which they said is about $16-20). I will happily pay the same to a KLOVer if anyone is proficient in diagnosing and repairing it, whether it be a solder problem, prom/eprom issue, crystal or whatever. I really would like to get this done before the end of the year so I have it for my New Year's party. If I don't get any bites today, I'm probably going to ship it off tomorrow because I want to get this going. Thanks.
