Re: Dragon 64k PAL Video Schematic

Dragon 64L PAL Video Schematic v3 Corrected some minor typos. The schematic has been captured using the open source tool KiCAD. The shape of most of the parts has been redesigned to match the look of the Dragon Data schematic and included in a lib file. Although I have checked each part, line, ref a...

I am open to 'offers' but be aware that the postage will be pricey due to the 'brick' of a floppy drive!!!!

Re: Video problem

I have just finished the schematic of the video section. You may find the files in the upload section. There is a pdf (A3) with the whole circuit in it. Could anyone please check the text grammar?. Thanks!

Re: Video problem

Now I should build a cassette lead and try loading a program. I accept recommendations ;) That's a tricky one to answer, do you have any joysticks? For a Gauntlet style game you may want to try "Glove" ( http://archive.worldofdragon.org/index.php?title=GLOVE ). If you have a working joystick and wi...

At least I would, if I knew where they were. Sorry, it's not in either of my Dragon docs boxes, so it might take a while to find.

Edit: oh, but well done on getting the last bit fixed :)
oh, ok, thanks anyway!

I have checked the power pins (+5V) and seem to be right. You are right, I should also check all the connections of the OA signal from the VDU to...
