I have built a few cables and have some for sale vic-20 s-video cable for modifyed vic-20`s if you have modifyed your vic-20 with C/L on 4-5 of the 5 pin din , this 5 pin video/audio cable will plug in and work great it has a molded s-video connector and has C on the Yellow plug and L on the White p...

ahhhh ok I get it now
you were just upset I had a way to do it for 1 cent and that hurts your sales .....
now I am starting to understand

see how easy that was.... you could have just said that the first time and not say I didnt give any info and the thread was pointless.......
this is why I do not share my projects......

mrr open your eyes and read it again I say EXACTLY what I did ! if you are to stupid to look at a board and see with your eyes the location I say I used...it is you that has the problem and I would like to know a BETTER way to do this SO YES I AM ASKING! I give exact board I am using and exact parts...

it cant be Just that easy
id expect that we needed a special adapter kit with all sorts of components and parts and jumpers and wires and 15 pages of instructions
just a 1 penny resistor for s-video?

I am working on a MDK 2 IHB board fab#324002-01 rev.F I did something wrong and need to fix it I lifted FB9 side closest to pin2 and lifted the FB? the one closest to E2 and above Q7 , I lifted the side of the FB closest to the pot I then took a 2k resistor and soldered it into the 2 empty holes fro...

I don't know if there is anything wrong with your 25' cable but I know I would never use anything longer than 6'.

I have built and sold about 100 25 foot cables and even use 1 myself with no issues
and no that one jeff got was not from me

its the cap that is part of the reset , when it fails the vic20 will not boot or be hard to boot
on the flat power plug vic20 its c13
on the newer round power plug vic20 its C42

working on a vic20 that takes close to 30 seconds to turn on when you turn it on
luckily it was just C13 that needed to be replaced
now it boots like it should

I am not in the DC area
but I do sell Jiffydos and do system repairs
and I offer a free Jiffydos intall to people that purchase Jiffydos from me
you just pay the shipping costs

but hopefully someone close to you will offer to install a socket, it is a very easy thing to do

yes you can get red/green/blue 4 lead led`s that fit
along with a lot of other variants
I have fast flash and slow flash leds and even ones that dont care about polarity or if its AC/DC

today i dug out my 1540 and decided to do a little work to it I have added a 1540/1541 adapter board to the drive and I can select what mode to boot from when turning the drive on I use the the write protect sensor to detect and do the switching, I know its nothing new and has been done before that ...

I have used 3% for YEARS along with a fishtank
100% no need to make it complicated
only reason I use 3% is because I was told I could not do it
