Atari Lynx help needed! (Repair information...)

Archived from groups: rec.games.video.classic (More info?)

Hi, I have recently received a couple of Atari Lynx systems (the Lynx
II systems technically), and they don't work (I knew this when I got
them... Actually one does work, so I consider myself lucky.

I was just curious if there's any kind of tips or websites that might
mention common problems/fixes before I start digging into these things
to hunt down problems...

(1 of them seems to come on, but nothing on the screen and no audio,
but the screen lights up. The other 3 are all dead (no power light,
no activity at all when turned on). Any kind of common problem that I
should look at first on the dead ones?

Is it generally even worth trying to fix these? (I was just going to
mess around with them for fun...

Any tips that can be offered would be great!

TIA... Rik
