Re: JezC H4 Build - in slow time
@rubber_jonnie Yes, though I still haven't quite "finished" the build (cartridge port, MIDI sockets, internal FDD connection & HD mod, DMA bodge board plus DAC fix still to be done, then my 16MHz exxos accelerator & IDE v1.1c board to add in) at least it's running.
I still need to identify/nominate the permanent donor for the 4x custom chips that I've borrowed from a working 520 STFM for now...it was just too convenient that this one ST had all 4 chips in sockets & booted/ran OK...
I'd better put the list of remaining work/upgrades into my topic so that I don't forget them...
And then there is #2 to finish ordering the parts for & building up...by which time there will probably be an H5 awaiting my attention

Re: JezC H4 Build - in slow time
@JezC I need to do a component roundup for my 2nd H4, but it'll be relatively slow time. I wan't to do a really nice job on it as my first had a few issues, so this time I intend for it to be perfect.
I have an Alpha board too, which I may need to raid for parts while I'm a bit short on cash. I will come back to it at some point but the damn thing never worked
Also waiting for that HDMI adapter!

Re: JezC H4 Build - in slow time
@rubber_jonnie Ah yes...the lovely HDMI board...I might have to put that on my Christmas list (and hope it will be read around that time)...failing that, possibly for my birthday next year which gives them just over a year to finish it off).
I had to dig out a TV with a SCART connector to test the video on the H4...I'm wondering if I should have put a VGA socket on it instead of the 13 pin DIN...but it will probably have a Mono monitor connected most of the time (for MIDI usage when completed).
Yes, my hobby funds are depleted at the moment (hence why I've not managed to order the bits for the first IDE board)...might be lucky enough to order some bits when I get paid at the end of the month...
