Meanwhile it works again. It had a short on H and V-Sync.
So I followed the traces and not far from the Port there is a 74LS08 as a buffer in position 1F.
I replaced it and the picture is back.
The only thing was that I ordered the wrong size so I had to lengthen the legs.
Looks ugly, but works. Next time i must order the right size.

Quote from: soviet on May 13, 2024, 10:46:27 AMhi recently got a PC9821Ce2 now i finished recapping it, but need to know how to write the image to a disk ?.

using an ide to sd card adapter tried raw writing the file to the sd card using balenaetcher but the pc98 will not boot it get stuck after the ram test.



I use Balenaetcher, that's not the problem.


I use a CF card, but CF cards larger than 4gb won't work on a Ce2, ideally you need to use 2gb or less.

FYI Knight Arms is very picky about drivers. It will frequently hang on loading when SUSIE.X is installed at startup.

Some games like salamander, space harrier, super hang on don't boot.  I tested in an emulator and no matter how much ram I add, they still don't work

Quote from: Jehuty on May 12, 2024, 07:36:49 PMIt seems that V and H-Sync are broken on my CX20. I accidentally used an X68k to Scart cable with H and V-Sync connected together. Now there is only one image when I use pin 7 c-sync.
Strangely, my OSSC shows the correct Sync Hz and Khz values on the display. But no picture, 2 Extron devices show "no signal" and the LED on the SLG3000 stays off even when there is a connection.
So it seems to be V-Sync, possibly H-Sync too.

Are there any schematics out there to see what's in the wires?

There are no schematics.

My gen4 tower works. Ill poke and probe it if you need me to. Im going to assume some transistors are broken?

Can you attempt to trace backwards on your computer starting at hsync/vsync pins with oscilloscope until you get a reading? That way we can find what components died out and I can identify them on my board.

SIG X68000 / X68000 emulator XM6 TypeG v3.3...
Last post by samsonwilliams - May 15, 2024, 02:21:48 PM
I am using the X68000 emulator XM6 TypeG v3.31 L15.
Is there a command line program that I could run inside the emulator to cause a shut down of the OS and exit the emulator?
My goal is to use the emulator in a sort of "batch mode": start the emulator with a command line, then the OS boots and automatically performs some tasks that produce output files, then  the emulator would automatically exit and the processing of output files would continue on the host Windows OS, all without any user interaction.
I'm looking for something similar to UAEQuit that is supplied with the WinUAE Amiga emulator for those who know it.
