A fellow gamer, Dennis, gave me this PSOne (SCPH-101) for no reason but kindness. I cherish what I'm given, so I took the recap slow: no hot air, pulled the SMD caps by iron. Then a quick test with some Gran Turismo. hitmanmcc.com/entry/psone-... #retrogaming #PlayStation #PSone #Sony
Sony PSOne (SCPH-101) Careful Recap: No Hot Air · Hitman's Museum
Sony PSOne (SCPH-101) gifted to me by @PointerFunction for no reason other than fellow gamer kindness. Took extra care with this one; no hot air on the SMDs.

My good friend @pointerfunction sent some PAL hardware extras he had. I'm just opening it now even though I received it in September. I was in the process of moving and decided this box was already packed so just moved it along. Particularly excited for a PAL NES to test with.

As a side challenge @PointerFunction sent this without any screws. Thankfully I have a stash from past repairs. Nice try Dennis.

Massive thank you to @PointerFunction for making me a 3D printed commodore 1541 lever, and to get me started on lynx with Batman Returns. 👍

More backups. This time for @PointerFunction to get his up and running ( hopefully ).
Stay tuned in the coming weeks for a full capacitor recap thread.

A good friend of @PointerFunction is looking for a “Woody” so this already has a home to go to. There’s a small chip at the front, but I’m making the best one out of parts for two.

A small gap from May to September, but since parts have arrived it’s time to get back on the Atari.
In a previous tweet I mentioned a donor board was being sent to me by @PointerFunction , it arrived a few weeks back.
I’ll do something with this board, but for now, switches!

@PointerFunction designed some nifty little 3D printed brackets. He’s published these on thingyverse for you. Dennis kindly sent me one. Like a glove!

Swapped chips back for originals one by one.
Faulty TIA. Of course it is.
I’d love to have a game but this is robbed of joystick ports.
Solution coming in the form of a donor 4 switch board (broken) from @PointerFunction
Stay tuned.

@PointerFunction got the choice (from bad photo ) and the other is mine. I got the bum deal ha! Broken. Opened it to reveal past repairs and it does not power on. Terrific.

Picked up two Sega Master System power bases. Sorry for terrible pic, that was a joke for @PointerFunction since one is to be his.

Sega Master System I. Working. After wasting a lot of time with another unit and the time of @A3rgan and @PointerFunction with trying to get Snail Game BIOS swapped with Hang-On, I realised I had a Hang-on/Safari Hunt unit continued ....

After seeing the data lines still pulling low I consulted with some friends, namely @A3rgan and @PointerFunction , I was pointed towards the Video chip , a known failure point apparently on many machines. It provides a clock out. This one though doesn’t, progress.
