Mac84 (Steve) 🍏

Sadly I don’t think YouTube is too keen on promoting an hour long video about me rambling about film digitizing… at least from what I can see by the analytics. But I appreciate your interest! 👍

Let me know when yours arrives! 👍

I want to get one of those mods with a new screen and such... at least it would have been cool back then. I feel like emulating them on a TV is just much easier on the eyes and neck these days...

I still have my TV tuner and Master System adapters for the system, loved all those crazy add-ons! ❤️

I literally have a dozen Game Gears rotting away and reading things like this give me zero interest in working on them. 😭 Damn you capacitors!!

At least you just have one… 😅

I’m in the middle of doing a major clean up in the basement. At least the twins are on their respective thrones! 👑

Alright, I’m gonna put out a call, since searches have come up blank: if anyone has a complete driver package for the MSI Mega 651 (or similar models), please, PLEASE archive it. Or send it to me and I’ll do it. If someone knows where one is, please let me know.

Heads up folks, the scammer Sean Lee Robinson, aka "Geek With Social Skills" is posting videos again

This person scammed myself and others out of a considerable amount of money

DO NOT engage with this person

If you need more info, watch the video below, google them, etc

In situations like this, I load it up with tons of flux and use hot air to CAREFULLY ensure all pins are molten hot, then remove the chip. The issue is there is so much crud there that solder won't stick well. You may risk losing a leg if things don't come off cleanly, so you'll need to be careful.
