pbishop Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 I've been wrangling with 2 different 5200's for a few weeks now. One is a 4 port and the other is a 2 port. The 4 port has been closest to being fully operational. I had everything but the sound working on it. Someone mentioned swapping the Pokey chips in the 2 units (since the sound worked on the 2 port unit), but it didn't make any difference. I decided to try and swap all 5 of the chips in the center of the board which are on sockets (4 big chips and one small one which is located in the middle of the board). Now neither of the units will work. When I switch them on I either get a black screen (4 port model), or a green screen with random white dots on it (2 port). Did I just fry these 2 units?
