Nognir Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Like the topic says. I'm trying to repair my broken Phillips Videopac G7000 (PAL) console but I haven't got the schematic for it. Anyone knows where I can get it? I already found a link, but the link is unfortunately dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nognir Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 Yesterday me and a friend of mine opened the console and tried to find the problem. First of all, the problem itself : Every time I turned on the console with a game inside I get this weird screen: With a closer look at the circuit board we saw that one chip obviously is missing as seen here: Can someone tell me which chip it is and if I can replace it? Or is it probably better to get a new console? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Can someone tell me which chip it is and if I can replace it? Or is it probably better to get a new console? It doesn't look like a chip was ever soldered onto the PCB at that location to me. Did you find it rattling around in the case? It looks like the RAM is borked judging by your first picture. Try reflowing all the major ICs and see if that changes things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
