I have the power to the uIEC/SD coming up, no smoke or pops either, more testing...

Was it easy to install this?

Getting the SD card wired internally to the C64 was a little difficult. Had to figure out the pinouts and getting the wires under the board and soldered was slow and kind of a pain.

Now I need washers to lift the motherboard up a little at each corner because the wires underneath make it tippy and would stress the MB if it were screwed down at each corner.

Goose,

I might have to hire you to mod my luggable SX-64!. Heck, maybe I should just give it to you since you've given my so much Amiga crap!

You did, but don't feel bad, it was prolly a fault of mine or the flakey C64 hardware and not mine. He has offered to help trouble shoot the issue after all. I think I just need to send it to someone who can run test and repair what ever is broken if possible.

HAHA, Nooo. I'm in getting rid of stuff mode, don't impede my recovery! :lol:
I've made about 1000.00 this summer on my Amiga archives!

But I do have an extra DualSID board here would be great for it to go some where. And I have an extra 6851 to go with it - that's an easy mod.
