Re: Atari STE Power Up

I will pop the case back together and continue testing :) I guess it would be interesting if you put the old chip back in to see if the fault returns..It could be a bad connection, but I have noticed a different part number on the chip as well..

This is static but sometimes it rolls

Re: Atari STE Power Up

It’s an RGB to scart cable from cool novelties, found them to be the best tbh. Are you thinking to try another cable?
