My second MTX

Well I definitely over paid for this but not to worry it's just got added challenge. Wasn't exactly packed very well (two piece's of paper in a box with the MTX were the PSU, Tape deck and a box of tapes) but I guess it was only packed to go across the country (UK) not also from there to New Zealand...

Re: MFX mass-storage add-on

In anticipation for this I may have slightly over paid for a second MTX512 which is currently in transit. :shock:

Re: Fading Composite output

Yep its all good now. Played Escape from Zarcos for around 30 minutes with no further issues so it must have been the LM1889 at fault. :D

Re: Fading Composite output

OK while typing the previous message I remembered that I have a dead 48K Spectrum board (tracks lifted) which has a LM1889N on it. Bit of desoldering and swapped them over and it's been running fine for the last 10 minutes. :D Excellent finally I may get to put the lid on it and leave it there. :lol:

As part of recapping the motherboard I recapped the video board and every...

Re: It lives and what a great piece of equipment

This one puts it into better perspective :D

Here it is at the meeting. The MTX512 was not behaving and would loose all video output after around 10 minutes :evil:

It lives and what a great piece of equipment

So Because of HexTrain I got hooked and purchased a DE1 board from Mouser who still have some. After getting frustrated with Quartus mainly due to expired certificates on the drivers with 13.1 I just used the programmer and the pre compiled files. And its a brilliant piece of work Andy. I absolutely...

Re: CFXII - Black screen with it plugged in

Thanks guys. Yes I've learnt heaps. Especially with the Logic Board today. Also I know understand the CFXII board a lot more. Also it pushed me to upgrade it :lol: Yes hindsight is a fantastic thing. I might try putting the old Propeller chip and serial eprom back in to see if they work but that can...
