pitfall Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I got one of those av mods from 8bit domain. I am not too bad when it comes to soldering circuit boards, so the soldering job is decent. However when I plug in the video cable, the screen goes wobbly on me. I can see the title screen sort of, but the screen is going all over the place. Does anyone know how to fix this? IE is there a solder point responsible for this attribute or is the mod board bad? Plugging in that 4 pin adapter seems to do nothing, ie the screen looks the same before and after I plug it in. I emailed 8bit, but was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and a fix. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried all three plugs as well as the RF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitfall Posted January 22, 2006 Author Share Posted January 22, 2006 Yes, I sorta cracked the chip I took out so I can't put it back in. I tried all three plugs. The yellow gives waves, the white gives nothing but a black screen and the yellow gives waves. Is there anyway to replace that chip I removed? I really don't want to buy another 7800. I knew I should have not messed with a good thing.
