No its the card I didn't realise untill I uploaded it,(Its mean't to be Gray)Had to change the red,green(the 3 yellow screw nobs at the bottom left of the board where the cable goes in) screws with a screw driver.

I resoldered the wires on the video port on the Amiga and the spots are gone now..
EDIT: Going to make a better video soon (well in the next hour or so) so you can see the card,connections and PSU properly).. Last edited by spanner; 05 July 2012 at 18:41. |

What CWB are you using? I thought the WB1.3 theme was only in the 68k versions, made for ECS 68000 Amigas...
BTW: You have an A600, haven't you? Have you got it running? What does it need if not? Last edited by Retrofan; 05 July 2012 at 19:16. |

Nice!
Yeah, I have some of the sparklies too... I ordered a proper DB23 so I will see what happens with a better solder job.. Was thinking maybe its related to my power supply too.. Tried a better one, that might have less sparklies, but it also might be that I moved other things around. So I'll see what happens when I do a better solder job. I'm just using the cable they included, so nothing is shielded or anything... Thanx for the Vid!!! desiv |
