Fantastic repair job mate! I really enjoyed your very detailed walkthrough. I have repaired a couple of bootlegs myself and I surely know how it feels...This game is like a holly grail for many of us.Loved it since I was a kid,still enjoy playing it! :-)
Being a C64 guy myself and quite...
Gladly, but it's a NAOMI-I system...Here they come....
Looks nasty, doesn't it?
Here is the "after" stage...
During process...4 more left...
Warning
Be extra careful not to break the pads and pcb tracks!!! I cannot recommend this to a beginner. The whole process is hard and certainly...
Just did it for a NAOMI I system as well.The system works like a charm now ;-)
Please don't ask me for a cap list because I forgot to take notes...but I do remember there were LOTS of them!
That's an excellent idea!
Unfortunately not, I haven't this info in my notes but the board is still on my bench so I will gladly do it tomorrow (it's getting late now in Greece and I have to walk both my kids straight to bed ;-) ).

Maybe it's a power issue. I had all these issues with my Triforce 3 systems, but after I replaced all the smd capacitors to the base board, they work flawlessly...instant power on, crystal clear audio/video signal out and no random reset / reboot...
I will post a cap list and some kind of repair...
Oh!,alas not...and they are too many of them. I was so angry with this Triforce, I completely forgot to take notes. It took me about 2 hours to get the job done.
I am planing to recap another Triforce next week. I will do my homework then and let you know...
I bet that these dried out smd caps...
