This video is a brief look at a Sony SLV-686HF I bought off Facebook. The problem is that despite the tape threading correctly, I don't get any video. If anyone has any idea what the cause could be, I'd really appreciate your input.

Today we are taking a look at two Lenovo Thinkpad T430s laptops. One of them I found at an antique store; which had a bad keyboard, and the other I bought nonworking on EBay to salvage parts from. Can I combine the two to make one working machine? Stay tuned and find out! This video is also the first time that I'm using an actual tripod, so no more shaky videos. Also, I am experimenting with us...

    Found a tossed out D430 to-day. Also has a docking station sort of stuck! Has the Intel Duo core Centrino (had / has Win XP). Turn it on but it comes up "no boot device found" so either the HDD has been removed or its dead. Thank you 🤓 can the CPU be upgraded on the D430?

    just installed lubuntu (is free) from a usb (cp using rufus, which is also free) and goes great. I was not using the laptop because it was too slow with win10 & felt bad about it because it is still in great shape. There are some videos that substitute the disk to a ssd with using an mSATA-ZIF adapter board with mSATA hard drive. D430 has PATA interface. However, the mSATA to 1.8 adapter fails at times. I will leave it with linux by now.

    Most likely, a mode switch issue. Unplug the V.C.R., undo the entire chassis, and then locate the mode switch. Remove the cap, make sure that the arrows are aligned perfectly upon reassembly. Clean the contact traces with alcohol and use a very small amount of white lithium grease on the contacts. Reassemble mode switch and V.C.R. It should work. Never force a tape into a transport. It could irreparably damage the V.C.R.

    I recommend recapping the power supply. Your Magnavox looks like a Panasonic OEM. Their SMPS power supplies always develop problems with leaky or out-of-spec caps and the symptoms are diverse; bad picture, unstable playback, unable to detect tape speed, the head drum won't spin, etc.

  • @SebisRandomTech
    @SebisRandomTech 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Also try spinning the head manually. If there's resistance (you have to force it to spin) then something is clogging it up (dust or something). This happened on one of my VCR's, and a through but careful cleaning fixed the problem.

  • @SebisRandomTech
    @SebisRandomTech 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does this have the automatic head cleaner on it? If so it might be jamming the head.
