Previously working Missile Command turning on to solid white screen/no test mode

Yea I kinda needed to walk away, take a break from it, and cool off....heh. ;)

But to be honest, I don't have much faith in it. I'm totally expecting the game to never work...lol.
 
Got my original and repaired board back from brzezicki in the mail today. Plugged it in and it fired right up! (I honestly wasn't very hopeful at this point, lol)

brzezicki is 'da man! :D Ran it for about four hours, powered it on and off at least 10 times and played a bunch of games and it seems rock solid! I'll probably do the trackball rebuild Friday. This is a hard game, can't believe someone marathoned it for 50+ hrs! lol. The other board I bought that didn't work from a fellow KLOV'er is going to refund me as soon as he receives the board back from me so he's a first class seller/KLOV'er. So there's a happy ending to this story after all! :D
 
awesome, glad to hear it is up and running and didn't get become target practice. I know the frustrated feeling, when I got my tempest I nearly decided to quit collecting it caused me so much frustration I think it took me 1.5 years and replacing everything to find my issue was just a bad solder joint in the 1 thing I didn't replace yet.

also very happy to hear the seller of the other board stepped up and refunded you.
