No, NOT a trick, a Halloween treat! Presenting the Dead of the Brain 1 English patch by David Shadoff for the DEAD last official PC Engine CD game published by NEC before exiting the console biz in 1999! I helped edit/betatest and it's also a game I actually finished in 2023, yaaay! Shubibiman also did a French localization. github.com/dshadoff/DeadoftheBrain

Hi all,

I am new here, thanks to admins for activate my account. This is my first message .

I have a Turbo Duo, it was stored in a box since years...and I decided to check it because I bought a turbo everdrive.

I made the rgb mod, and its working fine. I recapped all caps too, sound is working fine now with hu-cards.

But I have a problem in cd-rom. I dont know if lens works. When I turn on the console, cd spins all time. I am not expert in Nec consoles, but this console has a push button which is pressed when cd tap is closed, right?
In my console this push button dont mind, cd spins all time. I have tested the push button and there isnt continuity, so its fine.

Lens is always in the same place, motor which moves the lens has 4V, I dont know if this is correct. I have tested traces and all is ok too.

Sorry for my English, I have recorder 2 videos. I have only a cd-r burned at 1x and a music cd to test cd-rom drive.

In my dropbox folder there is a pic too. In this pic, as you can see, I have replaced a 220 Ohm resistor because there was continuity. I have continuity in L101 too (in his extremes).

If anyboy can help me...

I have only a tester, no osciloscope or similar.

Thanks in advance.
