When I tore mine apart I used kapton tape to keep it adhered down

I have first generation with 4 adjustable resistors on the side. It can “read” the soundtrack of a game but not the application. What should I look for?

@CyberhugTechnologies could you please explain exactly what you did? It is not really clear for me. I'm sorry for asking. You used double sided tape as I understood from another comment, right? But you taped it between the upper and lower ribbon cable, right? And you taped the lower one against the metal when the laser is in its maximum position at the motor, right? So why double sided tape when only one side is used? Could you please help me? Thank you bro

I have a laser 310.

So So great childhood memories! <3

Hey, thanks gonna try this out, I got a lot of 3 Plus/4's that I've been fixing and one of them did get a lifted ribbon connector like this. Didn't know what I was gonna do.

I have that

My PS2 from the UK looks NOTHING like the two used in this video 🤣 im sat here with mine in a million parts lol

dude i don't know why but after some attempts of calibration my tester is not reading DVD resistance, only CD, did i damaged DVD potentiometer contacts or what? Anyways i think that i can calibrate it without measuring it, just checking the position of the screw... Anyways it isn't that important because i bought some fortuna freemcboot memory cards with mx4sio for my ps2 slim, but damn i need that laser working because of nostalgia, lol.

Thank you for this! Amazing workaround until the charger is delivered! Many thanks!

Dont do this, ds lite chargers are like 5 bucks off amazon

My DVD laser works now at 1,045! Thank you!

One of the most concise videos i have seen for this particular model man! Great content as always! Many thanks and thumbs up again!

Thank you so much for this video. First one I found with the same laser as mine, I could not find any information as to which adjustment screw was for CD and which was for DVD.

Thanks my ps2 slim works perfectly now!

What's the github of the board?

thank you so much for this video!! I got my own recently and it was running with a couple issues and I would of had no idea how to fix it without your video!!!

I played this game so much :D

I thought the game would be on PC (dos)

very well made video. Beautiful machine

I built one of these from the kit. Like other home computers, they were hard to get hold of, and we had to harangue them to get them to dispatch. It would have worked first time had my brother not told me to plug the 2k of RAM (4 chips) into the wrong sockets. The picture was very poor, and eventually they told us that in some kits they had mistakenly supplied PNP instead of NPN transistors for the video amplifier; when replaced, it fixed the problem. I tried doubling the clock speed to 2MHz and it worked fine, but the 300 baud cassette interface became 600 baud and was not really workable without using a reel to reel recorder.

Recently Got One That Was Gonna Get Thrown Out It Has No Issues But It Needs Cleaning Otherwise Fully Functional But Starts Smelling Lole Hot Dust After A While It's Got It's Only Got The RF Cable The Cassette Cable Is Missing But To Test It I Took An Ild Aux Cable With a Broken end Snipped The End Off And Shoved The Wires Int GND Amd CMTIN (found the manual so i knew the pinout) Amd Loaded A Few Games From My Phone But I Am Gonna Start Cleaning it Soon And The Remote Relay Works (tested with MOTOR ON MOTOR OFF) It Was Covered With Dust Otherwise In almost Perfect Condition And Its Got The Clips For The Printer Port

Is the cinematic scene slow or fast?

NOBEEP - always first command when one typed after started it.

Mine has the grinding issue please tell me how do I fix it

How do you get the laser in the down position to check to see if the ribbon cable is okay? The laser is always in the up position whenever I turn the console off.

Can this happen through wear and tear

What type do you recommend I use?

Factory ROM is a mask ROM, they don't get erased, but they do go bad. They can go bad in such a way that all the data pins constantly show HIGH, which in turn will be read as FF by your programmer. That's my theory on your mystery.

Nice job , another on saved from landfill ;) I'd be very surprised if that ROM chip were blank. It's most probably a broken connection within the rom chip itself to the "chip enable", 5v or even the gnd pin, which would mean that the MSX or your EPROM programmer would be unable to read from it. The MSXs are nice machines, some great games were made for it and even some colecovision games were ported to it. I've just seen your sub count, congrats on making it to 1000 and have a happy new year buddy ;)

It was a very good Spectrum 48k. Better than the rubber keys and the spectrum+. Better keyboard, composite video, joystick interface, power button and light. Didn't bought it, because I already had a 48k with a Dk'tronicks keyboard, and I had a power switch and a composite video interface and joystick interface. Basically this had all the things I had to buy for the rubber keys 48k 😊

Please explain all 8 video modes fully have you seen stefan drissens mod player at 8mhz? Can we buy the 8mhz z80 upgrades anywhere?

It's really mechanical? My 128d keyboard feels about the same as my amiga 600

HOLY CRAP IT WORKED

Perfect up...I've turned anticlockwise about 1-2mm and it worked like a charm .Before that laser read just CDs PS1 games and some dvd movie but not dvd ps2 games .Now it just reads everything .Amazing 2 minutes hack 👍👌🎮❤️

I wonder how i do load cassettes tapes into the msx,i might have to go to basic and then write run,hit play and then hit return,or i have to go to transfer option, Either way i found the menu a bit because instead of hitting up or down to get to the menu,you have to hit left or right to get trough the menu,i was very confused untill now.

XL12 is better

I appreciate that you made this video, and it was helpful. Though to be honest, you say uh and um a bit too much.

Can you please Help me? My front door sensor fell off the front Switch.. What can I do? Sensor broke off

Atari were making 520Mb and 1040MB STFM and STE. They may have made factory upgrades to 4160MB but they never sold them here in the UK. I bought a 2nd hand Atari STE and shop upgraded it to 4160Mb in 1989 (they added dual ROM at the same time) the 4160 label was not included in the shops kit so my label remains a 520. The blue 4160 labels have only been available since the coming of Ebay. Your Atari STE appears to be in a very good condition, you even have an original working mouse. I suspect that whoever upgraded the RAM refurbished the whole machine and re-badged it. The latest Atari RAM upgrades are considerably better than the 1980's ones, so if your upgrade was recent it's probably better than a genuine factory upgrade. The hard drives you could buy for an Atari St in the 1980's are no longer available but you can get an Atari hard drive emulator, I use an SD4ST. Your Atari floppy drive may die, the rubber drive band goes first, get an Atari floppy drive emulator called a Gotek.

how do i know how much to turn the potentiometer, and also is there another method of testing, i only own dvds lol

I had one in 1988.😆👍

More videos of the 2048, please! 🙂

I have one , complete and still working !! nice

happened me moment ago, but coz was i plugging rf modulalor when it was powered so it short circuit something. when its on amiga not boot when its off amiga blinking capslock keyboard not work. and bcoz rf modulator not work i have grey screen i giveup its my secondary a500 with pistorm

Very interesting. I've never seen a functional Atom. In fact, the only ones I ever saw were at the back of a cupboard in my school computer room. I started secondary school in the UK in 1985, and by then the school was using BBC Micros, but had previously had a few Atoms. They were very dusty and had clearly not been used for years by the time I saw them. Cool it still works and you got a decent picture. Does it support lower case text? I'm guessing it doesn’t.

Got my ps2 out of storage after 13 years, had this issue and was pretty bummed out and thought it was a lost cause, found your video and it completely fixed my issue, had to take apart the system 10+ times adjusting slowly but it finally worked! Thank you so much!

Thank you for your work and for the information.

Made a ghetto style cable just to check if this would work on my phone and the only thing I struggled with was finding the perfect equaliser setting (1khz+ max dB, below that min dB, always at max volume). Otherwise, tapes playing would not be recognised. However, sound coming from my laptop connector still won't play on the speccy, it could be related to fact it has integrated microphone.

Wait so u only tape thebottom of the ribbon ???
