Scandoubler scanmagic doesn´t work really good

i built in my internal scandoubler from DCE and saw that it doesn´t really work like i hoped so much....

the amiga screen seems to be covered with a red/brown layer all over the whole vga monitor...

maybe there is a resistor or similar out of work...
does anybody could help me...???

i hope you all understood what i mean...

i have also built this thing in my desktop a1200 some weeks ago and it works fine - even though i have the tower version of the dce sm.


i broke my original a1200 with it because i didn´t realize you have to push the chips really hard on the motherboard until you hear a loud click. otherwise that thing hangs really loose. might that be the issue? the mainboard really bends a lot while pushing that thing on.


otherwise you might check the color "warmness"-degree that can be set by the monitor.


mine works fine now (on a new mainboard ;>) - only thing that didn´t work was dynablaster whd in ntsc mode... and vertikal movements of e.g. icons in flicker mode seem a little distorted - but all in all it´s a great thing!


greetings!

kann man so sagen...

naja...das mainboard habe ich nicht zerbrochen, der A1200 läuft ja weiterhin wunderbar auf meinem commodore 1084ST

/translate mode on

i really didn´t broke the mainboard cause the A1200 still works fine together with my commodore 1084ST

*/translate mode off

did you hear a loud click? is it really attached STRONG?

have you tried different color warmness settings?


...otherwise - no clue!!

i tried to pm this, but your postbox seems to be full:

hi,

ich habe meinen miggy nicht beim befestigen geschrottet - im gegenteil, ich war zu vorsichtig. das teil hing leicht lose auf alice und lisa (hatte die tower version vom dce scanmagic). dadurch kams zu einem kurzschluß und dann siehst du auch am 1084s nix mehr. so wars bei mir - alice zerschossen, chip wird nur noch heiß und nix passiert mehr. das will ich dir nur ersparen. später stellte ich fest, daß man die geschichte so fest aufs motherboard drücken muß, daß es sich gefährlich durchbiegt bis der scanmagic mit einem lauten klick einrastet. um gottes willen, sei so oder so vorsichtig - ich will nicht schuld sein, wenn dein motherboard durchbricht, aber das teil muß auf press sitzen und nicht wackeln oder so. bei meinem zweiten amiga funzt das teil bestens, ohne farbprobleme. habe aber die farbwärme des vga-monitors nach meinem geschmack eingestellt.

alles gute und viel erfolg!!


to the non germans, don´t know how to use the translate function - don´t feel offended, but it was easier for me to explain it that way.. maybe someone else translates...

Eu por acaso tive alemão na escola, era alta barra nisso, porém, não percebi nada do que tu disseste!

Translation ON

Ich durch Zufall habe ich Deutsch in der Schule, hoher Epochenstab in das aber ich habe wahrgenommen nichts gehabt als Sie haben Sie gesagt!

Translation OFF

Is this it?

yes i pushed the part for the alice chip so hard on the mainboard that the original circuit broke...

no problem, i bought a new chip carrier and repaired the broken thing...
but the problem still exists...

it would be very helpful if anybody know, what kind of parts are put on the thing which need to be attached on the lisa chip...

maybe i only have to change one of them...

btw: ohh...my postbox is really to full...time to sort the pm´s...

I am really satisfied with my DCE scanmagic.... you must be doing something wrong! Check your monitor cable, if is not OK it can cause the color distortion...
