Double Dragon - Repair Log - Day 2
Okay.. I did something a little silly ..not in a baaaad way tho.I've bought another broken Double Dragon board on fleaBay to assist in the repair.. (hope I wasn't bidding against Beaps!! :D) - cost £37 all-in - ruuning at a lose, but hey, at least I can keep the scraps.
It arrived last night & I immediately swapped the top board from the new one with Beaps rusted one (remember the resistor pack issue?):
As the one I received locks up on boot, I fitted Beaps brand-new processor & US Rom set:
And... drum-roll....
We have a good picture - all that remains now is the player 1&2 start buttons don't respond, booo.. :(
Bet £1900 some one had previously rear-ended the 12v line.. (reversed the Jamma connector)
There looks to be some previously attempted repairs around this region of the board, so I know where to look first..
