Possible, but risky methinks. Do you have the pinouts for both? Same
connectors don't always = same inputs/outputs. If you don't have them,
email me (dfrance - at - revealed - dot - net) and I'll send them to you.

An ounce of precaution..... :)

Wow, you the same guy who beat me out on that gravitar board yesterday?

Use a meter, check your voltages, ohm your grounds, etc..
Check the fuse connections.

Yup..I be the same person.

What I meant in my e-mail to you is that I would have paid almost
anything for a boardset....my last board just died for no apperant
reason...and my games mean that much to me.

How many of you out there have parents constantly asking you "Have you
put the games up for sale yet??/ Have you sold any games yet"??



NEVER!!!!!

I still get that after 11 years :). Still, a small sacrifice to let one go
when you really need the money, then use half of the money to do what you
need, then the other half to buy a few "BARGAINS", you just, just gotahave

The wife. She's more easily replaceable. :)
