yuppicide Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I picked up a 2600, light sixer. It worked the first day I got it, but now has no picture. I thought I'd open it up to check if I can adjust some pots. Printed on the board is "don" about 20 or 30 times. Is this normal? Just wondering because I've never seen it before.

Also, I have no picture on screen.. aren't there potentiometer's inside I am supposed to adjust? I see three holes.. one has red. I'm thinking I adjust that one?

Wickeycolumbus Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Looks like "don" is the name of the PCB manufacturer. The potentiometer is probably under the metal shield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zylon Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 What a gyp! I figure somebody found a nut claiming he's the "godfather" and all I get is another broken Atari story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yuppicide Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 Actually that's sound, or so it said on the motherboard. I finally opened up the metal shield. The pot is in the top left hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
