n64 rgb mod

Post by Elrinth »

Hi!

I just installed one of these:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kit-video-RGB-N ... SwxH1T035e
They don't have a proper guide on their website on how to install it on the BU9801, so I kinda merged together the different guides I could find and tried to do whatever seemed reasonable.

But I'm just getting green image with RCA cables. It flickers half a sec when turning on then black image with the RGB cable that came with the mod.

I have BU9801.

Anyone know what might be wrong!? Has anyone done this mod? Mabye I did something wrong as the guide to install this doesn't exist.
I followed this: http://retrorgb.com/n64rgbmod.html
But it doesn't show where to tap the 5V+ which I found on some place, it didn't show where to tap GND either... Which I tapped from 12:th pin on the BU9801

Here's their guide (which doesn't account to my chip): http://www.otakus-store.net/en/content/ ... or-all-kit
