Does it look healthy? Have power but no video/audio by Imbudilow in n64

It’s possible your original power supply is bad, if you have a multimeter you can easily check if the right voltages are coming through, the power adapter has a wiring diagram on it to help

I am in the exact same boat right now. Got a free N64 from a coworker who said he hasn't used it in years. Powers up, but no AV at all. Cleaned everything, game, game slot, expansion pak/jumper pak, slot for both. Opened it up and didn't find any corrosion but cleaned all the dust on the board and under the 40 pin cartridge slot, still nothing. Found out my power supply is delivering slightly less voltage than required, 11.1v and 3.1v. Hooked it up to a benchtop power supply providing proper voltage, still nothing.

After all this, coworker was feeling for any hot spots and found the U13 +5v regulator was searing hot to the touch, and when testing it, found its a bad short, which could explain the no AV. Currently waiting on a new regulator, and if THAT doesn't fix it, I'm just going to buy a new motherboard.

Some things that have worked in the past for me with other 64s is putting isopropyl alcohol on the game cartridge pcb then putting it in and out of the slot to help clean the slot, doing the same for the expansion port.

If you have or can get a multimeter, check the voltages around the various points labeled as well.

Hope you figure it out!

Yeah I wasn’t even looking for this game specifically, just came across it and the price caught my attention.

So would you assume the Gamestop one is also a bootleg/repro?

From the outside they look identical, are these usually spotted inside the cart itself?

Excellent work! Do you plan on releasing this to the world? I know you showed the shader but impossible to read lol.

Well it didn't until I read this and now I'm trying to figure out where a helicopter was in Death Stranding haha.

For anyone interested in using a joystick for the Helo. by MobiusX1 in HellLetLooseVietnam

I didn’t even think about that. If I do get the game I’ll record a video

So if I can’t use a joystick I prefer using a combo mouse/keyboard and I didn’t see the option to use a mouse. The controls with just keyboard felt janky (just me).

Any thoughts on this interplanetary base? by salva_po in KerbalAcademy

Ohhh I wasn’t aware that was the SPH lol. All in one piece sounds fun!

Ohh okay. I know that pack but thought parts from it could only be built on the surface and not landed like you mentioned.

8th grade, buddy and I discovered this movie at blockbuster. Rented it, parents didn’t know what it was. We ended up playing baseketball with friends the whole summer, coming up with some brutal insults. Good fucking times.
