Bikerbob Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 If you have done yours into an 800- can you show a pic or describe as best you can how you do the video wire run to the internal connections? I am using a cut wire supplied with the device.. maybe I need to use something smaller and more flexible. But I know it was stated that the shielding is very important.

Bikerbob Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I need help. I had a working 800 with incognito - last week the SIO died, so I thought fine, time to put the SCCC in. I will change the Pokey while I am in there.. most people think its the pokey causing the SIO issue. I have installed the SCCC - hard time routing the cable, but what you see seems to work and I can get the cage over it. I can start it up.. with the speaker attached I can here the startup clicks. but screen stays black. I can hold the start button and I will get the cassette load tone. I am getting no video. How do I test. I have removed the components from the board - so I cannot reconnect video. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerbob Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 OK, figured out one thing I got wrong. I had the HLT and RDY lines mixed up.. because in the incognito instructions from Lotharek his board is had pin 1 up.. and mine was pin 1 down.. So.. Dont think that would do damage.. but changed right.. no screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+scorpio_ny Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Hi @Bikerbob I am not sure if this card disables it, but are you getting a video signal on the built in video? Are you seeing a normal screen from there? Just to rule out any issues with the video chips 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to rule out any issues with the video chips Sorry, guess you have not done this mod - once you remove the components from the video circuit, you cannot get the built in video out anymore - I removed the components - the caps that were on the output lines did not survive the removal, so I cannot put them back in if I wanted to.

+scorpio_ny Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Ah ok. Does that go for the RF output as well? Maybe you can hook it up to a TV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikerbob Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 (edited) ahh.. actually I do in a box, never opened.. Great idea. Its a step.. but actually I would like to know why its not working !! Edited September 23, 2022 by Bikerbob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerbob Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 ok, the Hlt / RDY lines I think were my issue. not sure.. I redid a few connections and we have the screen back.. and we are booting. Unfortunately my original issue and why I decided to put the SCCC in now is not fixed. SIO issues.. but thats another thread. James 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
